You may feel undeserving of any happy Tao Of Rich Reviewdestiny because you are fundamentally not okay with yourself. Well, for all I know you might well be consumed by a huge ego, be selfish, vain, bitchy, resentful, etc. But I would like to ask how do we really know when we are basically bad? That would be quite a big conclusion to carry around on one's shoulders. Here are four questions that might help your spiritual self-assessment.
How judgmental are you about yourself?You may not be as bad as you think if you have been focusing on or exaggerating the negative side and ignoring or minimising the positive."For all right judgment of any man or things it is useful, nay, essential, to see his good qualities before pronouncing on his bad." (Thomas Carlyle)
We may be quick to pin labels on people. That's why the tabloid newspapers sell so well. But being judgmental about oneself is a similar attitude. One can search out for and exaggerate one's own defects just as easily as finding fault in others. Seeing oneself just in terms of one's negative characteristics means forgetting such positives as one's generosity of spirit or one's desire to better understand the deeper side of life.
