🔹 What is Self-Awareness?
Self-awareness means learning to understand yourself before trying to understand others.
🔹 Understanding Yourself
- How are you thinking?
- How are you feeling?
- How are you acting?
- How does it make you behave, or feel like behaving?
- What is your reaction?
- What is your interaction with life around you?
🔹 Important Idea
👉 How we are around ourselves is how we are around others
- If we are not showing it, we are hiding it
- Neither is always healthy
🔹 Being Honest About Feelings
- It is more than okay if we are not okay
- If we are not okay, it can come out on others around us
- This is something we mostly cannot control all the time, no matter how hard we try
🔹 Limits and Pressure
- There is only so much we can take on our own
- Only for so long or short
🔹 Awareness in Daily Life
- It is not always easy to remember every day
- We may not always notice the impact we have on others
- That impact can be good or bad
👉 It is important to be mindful of:
- The world around us
- The way we behave
- The choices we make
🔹 Self-Reflection Questions
- Are we making the right choices in life?
- Are we handling our stress levels?
- Are we learning from our mistakes?
- Are our social lives healthy?
- Are we taking deep breaths?
- Are we setting positive goals?
🔹 Social Awareness & Relationships
- Are we showing empathy (putting ourselves in the shoes of others)?
- Are we managing social relationships?
- Are we building rapport?
- Are we communicating clearly?
🔹 Most Important
👉 Being honest with oneself and others
🔹 Activity – Self Reflection
How do you feel today?
How might your feelings affect others?
What is one thing you can do to improve your wellbeing?
🔹 Reflection
Why is self-awareness important?
