We must deeply know that we have much to correct within ourselves.
Then, as a logic consequence, we must know that our flaws will show up. At least some day they will show.
Some event, some set of circumstances will one day bring our flaws into the light for others to see, including us (if we want to see - usually we don't).
We must then understand that when our flaws show up, others will see them and those who see them are at liberty to tell us about them especially if our flaws adversely affect them.
We after all would do the same wouldn't we.
The issue really is that we know we have flaws but we don't want others to tell us about them. We really take offence.
This offence is a part of our personality, where there is a unspoken agreement to not judge and criticize others. Though no one adheres properly to this agreement. We only adhere to some side of it - not wanting to be criticized while we criticize others freely.
This sleeping condition where we don't want to see our flaws is something that we have to dissolve if we want to in truth correct our flaws.
We know that we are changing in when we are truly happy to hear about our flaws because we know that a discovered flaw means a flaw no-more.
If we think we have no flaws that means that we want to be perfect. Doesn't it?
We have to understand that flawlessness requires lots of work. As a gymnast's flawless routine requires hundreds of hours of rigorous training and practice.
So if we want to be perfect we should know that it means to be work a lot, and so we should not get angry about our flaws being exposed and having to work on them should we? No not at all!
But we typically get angry - why then? Because some ego wants to be perfect but not work for it! A dreaming "I" it really is.
We can really help ourselves by contrasting our unrealistic dreaming psychology with the realities of life and use that truth to dissolve it.
