I believe that everyone could benefit from having a life coach,someone who periodically would explore with a person her goals and concerns.This wonderful resource because of financial constraints, or other challenges is not always readily available, but it is possible to be your own life coach. It is healthy to at least occasionally reflect on what is important, and without being too self absorbed to assess what you wish to achieve in your life. It has nothing to do with comparing yourself to any other person ,but rather is an opportunity to look in the mirror and to reflect on what you have learned about life. Too often the treadmill of the daily routine is so draining that to have a short period of time to examine where you are at ,and what have you learned can be most rewarding.
