Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?

• When I look back I default to everything I regret and fell short on, and the genuinely good and hard-won things I did barely register
• I showed up for something hard last week when I really didn’t want to, and instead of letting it count toward "I’m someone who follows through," I just blew past it onto the next demand without a thought.
• At the end of the day my failures are vivid and my wins are invisible
• I keep my small wins to myself because it feels like bragging, so they quietly evaporate
• I want to know what my real strengths actually are
