Although it's easy to look around for someone or something on which to blame our problems, the truth is that our biggest problem is usually us. We seem to have a knack for getting in our own way.

I don't know about you, but I've found out that if I just focus on working on myself, life gets better.

Here are some questions we can use to check up on ourselves to make sure we are constantly growing and developing:

• How's my attitude today?
• What am I doing today to develop my gifts and abilities?
• Am I willing to pay the neccessary price to go to the next level of responsibility?
• What things have I allowed in my life that God can't bless?
• Are there some low-return things I need to say no to so that I can say yes to more high-return things?

Taking the time to regularly evaluate ourselves will help us focus our efforts on changing and improving the one person who has the most to do with our sucess: us.
