Who do you believe knows you the best? 

Yourself, of course! And, the best way to know yourself is not by looking outside but inside, from an outsider's perspective. Give yourself the same treatment of assumptions and impressions that you would give an outsider! Perhaps uncomfortable, but you will be amazed at what you discover about yourself and how you can use that knowledge to better yourself & benefit from it. Benefit, not just you but all those around you as well.

Well! With time on your hands now, why not learn more about yourself and discover your true potential & how to extract it?
