Self-improvement only takes place if you have identified your strengths and weaknesses. Knowing your strengths and weaknesses is essential, from your relationships to those in your career.

Self-assessment and seeing yourself outside of yourself help you better understand what you seek and where you are likely to thrive and excel. It gives you a better understanding of your desire and where you will likely do well.

The change enables you to become the person you want to be. Practicing and enacting change yourself is one of the most rewarding processes you will ever experience. It also displays a particular life skill, the ability to reinvent yourself.
