ADJUST YOUR RELATIONSHIPS
Being sensitive to others is one of the most important steps in knowing your place. Don't just "be" with people. Notice them. Where are others strong and where are they weak? That will help you better understand where you stand.
Analyze the dynamics of your important relationships. Is it a teacher-student relationship? Or parent-child? Or equal friendship? Or some combination?
By asking these questions, you'll be able to determine if your position is a healthy one. For example, a good marriage is one where both sides share their strengths and complement each other.
On the other hand, you might discover that some of your relationships are power struggles, constant battles for control.
Parents can sometimes treat a child of 25 the same as when he was 15. Or adult children can treat parents as they did when they were little. Correct this.
