Not everyday. But enough to feel like I'm relevant and true to myself.

I do it daily. I set aside an hour each morning just to make sure I'm still as wonderful, intelligent, gorgeous, sexy, fun and utterly mesmerising as I was the day before and always find that I am in fact perfect in almost every way - my only fault is that I'm excessively modest.

Everyday

It is positive only if A) you are actually honest with yourself, and B) you are prepared to work on yourself if you uncover any flaws or character defects.

And what’s the measuring stick for evaluation? Cornerstone? Timeframe? Plane?

Change is hard

Well some aspects of our personalities can be changed, I suppose. Other parts are difficult, if not impossible, to change. And many of us may be at an age where we accept ourselves, warts and all. I guess it depends where you are in your life. I agree that if there is an aspect that is unhealthy or self-destructive, it would be a good thing to change THAT. Is that what you mean by evaluation? Not sure if that is what you mean by asking the question.

evaluated what aspect of myself? a human being is a complex thing. i made a promise at age 15 to reevaluate all my beliefs periodically and i have kept my promise. i don't see the point, though, in doing a head-to-toe every, say, six months. i'm too old for that. i just work on what i need to work on.

Every day, all the time, with an eye toward letting go of "self-ness" (i.e. identification with externals). Another excellent topic for "Dharma Café", where this kind of thing relates directly and centrally to our chosen theme(s).

No.

It is difficult to do. Most of us see ourselves with rose colored glasses and when someone points out "faults" in our make up we get hurt and angry and look for excuses, however it is all very important that we do it from time to time.

Like evaluating yourself how??
