The majority of us seem to have no real issue accepting acknowledgment and praise for our strengths. However, a majority of us also seem to not be so readily accepting of the criticism and corrections of our weaknesses. It is however, the awareness and acceptance of our weaknesses that adds to our strength, if we allow it.

Many times, in trying situations, we tend to seek the comfort which we've been conditioned by society to think will be helpful to us.
