Know Thyself

To know thyself is a saying of caution and motivation. It's about applying introspection to our personalities where we can witness our strengths and weaknesses. Consider a time when you wanted to do something outside of your limits and were ignorant to learn the methods of whatever it might be. There is no penalty in doing what you have no experience in. But to give meaning in the effort of doing so is to know thyself well enough to see an advantage in gaining the experience. Our courage is constantly tested and our motivation ever struggling. We’re so much harder on ourselves than we are with other people in our lives. We don’t cut ourselves the sort of slack we would for those around us.
