A look at self – awareness

Self-Awareness is the conscious knowledge of one’s own character, habits and feelings.

It’s the ability to recognise and understand your own thoughts, feelings, and emotions. 

‘Self-awareness’ centres on recognising and managing our emotions.

It’s a key part of emotional intelligence because knowing yourself and how words and actions impact others, will help you maintain strong relationships, build trust, improve communication and a range of other “soft skills”.

Self-awareness is important because it helps us to become better decision-makers, It gives us more self-confidence — and as a result, we communicate with clarity and intention. 

It allows us to understand things from multiple perspectives.

It frees us from our assumptions and biases. 

It helps us build better relationships.

Self-awareness plays a crucial role in personal development and success.
