Two things on this subject of self-evaluation:

1. A line that's been hovering on my mind: "I need to find myself, so I can give myself away." This has to do with my desire to make my life count based on what I contribute. For this reason, I have been searching inside myself to assess where I'm at now, where I want to be (which is closely related to my view when i was younger), and what I need to do to get there.
2. Tomorrow I'll have my informal focal review. It's informal because I haven't been at Yahoo! long enough to qualify for a formal one, but I've been there long enough to show my peers and manager my strengths and weaknesses.  For this review, my manager asked me to rate myself from 1-10 in areas: my design ability, finance domain knowledge and where I am at Yahoo vs where I want to be here.
