People whom lack self-realization oftentimes fail to integrate their desired personality traits into all phases of their life including social life, family life, and work life.

“It’s worth building awareness about your own behavior and identifying places you could make different choices.

I was furious when I read your pamphlet—­but only because I knew it was the truth. I’d known it for some time. The reality set in somewhere around the Tropic of Capricorn. When I left you behind at Greenwillow Hall . . . I’d missed out.”
