Here's a list of ways one might know whether he's making progress toward being better (whatever "better" he might be headed toward, though this was in the context of practicing virtues). The came out of a philosophy discussion last week:
other people's reactions
consciousness of self
discovery [things work better and more easily than they did before]
external feedback / manifestations
reflection before and after
Does anyone here have other indicators to add, or ideas on these?
