The famous American cartoonist Thomas Nast was at a party with some friends. Somebody suggested that he draw caricatures of everyone at the party. Using swift, bold strokes of his pencil, Nast made quick sketches of each person. He passed the sketches around for everyone to look at. There were lots of laughing and joking. Then something unexpected happened. It seems that everyone recognized everyone else, but few recognized themselves. When it comes to self-recognition, we seem to have a blind spot. We don't see ourselves as clearly as others see us. We just don't recognize our main characteristics—our strengths and our weaknesses—as they really are.
