There are many ways to reflect on oneself. One very simple and easy to understand method was developed by a Japanese businessman named Yoshimoto Ishin. He called it Naikan, which in Japanese means “inside looking”. The practice of Naikan involves the use of three questions, all related to another person or relationship in your life. They are:

* What have I received from others?
* What have I given to others?
* What troubles and difficulties have I caused others?
