Personal Defects

I think I've usually been able to make a fairly thorough and searching job
of finding and admitting my personal defects.
So far as I know, there isn't a single defect or current problem of mine
which hasn't been discussed with my close advisors.
Yet this pretty well-ventilated condition is nothing for self-congratulation.
Long ago I was lucky enough to see that I'd have to keep up my self-analysis
or else blow my top completely.

Thought to Ponder....

If I always do what I've always done, I'll always get what I've always got.
