What are your blindspots?

Blindspots are things that people see about us but we don't see about ourselves.  They can be slight and not have such an impact, but they can be big, repetitive and deconstructive. 
These blindspots can be creating issues that are addressable just by bringing awareness to your blindspots. This is great for a better work environment, friend relationship or family culture. Blindspots can create a strain that can end up having a cascading effect on our relationships and environments.  It isn't easy to have someone tell you what they are, but done in a constructive way it can shed some wonderful light on your actions.  Please listen to help guide you through more about blindspots.
