5/ Read the ‘Surrounded by Idiots’ series
I borrowed a copy of this book and it was awesome.
Learn how you work, your pitfalls, strengths, etc.
Most intuitive way I’ve found of actually understanding people on the fly https://www.amazon.ae/dp/1250179947/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_2RGXJ9JPVXG0ZHKD3QE4

Have people around you fill out an anonymous survey of who they think you are. This includes parents, siblings, etc.
This gives you another perspective of how you’re perceived in the world and may shine a light on your blind spots.
