My work involves escorting people from a place of defensiveness—where they choose not to see parts of themselves that need to change because of fear—and into a place of being teachable and open to change. No one wants to hear bad news about their character, but refusing to see these truths simply keeps us in bondage to them. Consider who you need to listen to, who can see aspects of your character that you cannot see, and asking them for feedback.
