Self-Awareness: Accurately knowing your own character, feelings, motives, and desires

Self-awareness allows us to lead a happy and satisfying life.  Self-awareness motivates us to be our authentic selves, not manufactured versions of ourselves or a fake version of someone we are trying to copy.  In life and leadership, self-awareness increases our likability and credibility.

Self-awareness requires:

• Letting go of your ego
• Discipline
• Present focus

Accurately understanding your strengths, character, and emotions + seeking and applying feedback from others = self-awareness
