Self-Reflection Skill

三省吾身 - Deep Self-Reflection & Evolution System

Core Value

Not just "thinking about what went wrong", but systematic deep analysis:

Dimension	Ordinary Reflection	Self-Reflection Skill
Depth	Surface level	3 layers (Problem → System → Self)
Structure	Scattered	5-stage closed loop
Theory	None	Role Theory + Systems Thinking + Cognitive Biases
Action	Maybe none	Must have action + solidification

Three-Layer Framework

Layer 3: Role Reflection (反求诸己)
  └─ What roles do I play? Did I fulfill responsibilities? Role conflicts?

Layer 2: System Reflection (究其根源)
  └─ What mechanisms/processes/environment caused the problem?

Layer 1: Problem Reflection (直面问题)
  └─ What happened? Evidence? Impact?

Five-Stage Closed Loop

Reflect → Plan → Act → Verify → Solidify

Use Cases

Scenario	Example
Project Review	Reflect on quality/efficiency/collaboration after project
Negative Feedback	Deep analysis after receiving criticism
Repeated Mistakes	Same issue appears again
Skill Improvement	Examine your weaknesses
Habit Formation	Why can't I stick to it?
Work Improvement	Low efficiency / poor quality / communication issues

Quick Start

Just say:

"反思一下..." (Reflect on...)
"三省吾身" (Examine myself)
"审视一下..." (Review...)
"复盘一下..." (Post-mortem...)

Theoretical Foundation

Role Theory

Everyone plays multiple roles in work (executor/reviewer/coordinator...). Role conflicts are common sources of problems.

Systems Thinking

Problems are never isolated. They have chain reactions in systems. Improve the system, not just fix surface issues.

Cognitive Biases

Self-serving bias, confirmation bias, status quo bias... These psychological mechanisms make it hard to objectively examine ourselves. This skill overcomes these barriers through structured processes.
