Dwelling on Faults

Carrying on the same theme from earlier, I considered making tonight's blog post about another flaw of mine, but then I thought: What's the point? People often dwell on some negative aspect of themselves in a way that just serves to discourage them. If I plan to explore a fault of mine, I should do so with the intent to learn how to overcome it, rather than simply beating myself up about it. It is wise for a person to consider their faults, as I did yesterday, but only if that consideration has a positive effect on them. Learning how to overcome a fault is a good thing; just being negative about it is not.
