self-awareness

 The knowledge of sin is the beginning of salvation ...Epicurus


For he who does not know that
he has sinned
does not desire correction;
you must discover yourself in the wrong
before you can reform yourself!

Therefore,As far as possible,
prove yourself guilty
hunt up charges against yourself;
play the part,
first of the accuser,
then of judge,
last of intercessor!

At times, be harsh with yourself!
Farewell!

Charlie Munger, says this as well in forming opinions:
Munger's Law is the idea that you shouldn't form an opinion on a subject unless you can articulate the opposing argument better than the opposition can. This is about understanding the other side's argument, not adopting it
