Dating : Are you an Active Participant in Self Awareness?

Self-awareness is the pathway to self-mastery in that it allows you to level up on the control you have over your actions and the choices you make.

You begin to function at a higher level, making decisions that are not driven by impulse and ego-driven desires.

You become more mindful of how things are affecting you and in turn, you are more proactive as opposed to reactive.

Knowledge of self flips the switch from auto-pilot to you taking complete control of your life.

Being an active participant in self-awareness means spending time in introspection to get to know the parts of yourself that you prefer to hide from the world.

To do this effectively, I suggest journaling as a practice in communing with yourself.

Last week I wrote about having a relationship with yourself. It’s the most important relationship you will ever have so it’s best to be invested.
