Self Awareness

What does it mean to be self aware?

While consciousness is being aware of one's environment and body and lifestyle, self-awareness is the recognition of that awareness. Self-awareness is how an individual consciously knows and understands their own character, feelings, motives, and desires. (Wikipedia)

How does who I am, impact how I am?

It is not possible to be a good parent, employer, spouse, teacher or leader etc. if one is not self aware. It really all does start with self. High self awareness is the foundation of high emotional intelligence. If one is not self aware, it is practically impossible to be mindful of how one shows up.
