Today we will start a conversation on self-awareness.
The idea of Self-Awareness ripples through almost all the facets of our lives. It has been proven that the more self-aware we become the better our thinking which inevitably improves our choice quality and decision making process.
We will gradually walk through the 7 levels of Self Awareness, this I believe will give us an objective assessment tool to determine our current level in this ladder and then only can we design a formidable strategy on improving this critical aspect of our lives.
This is the basic level of Self awareness. Call it the "level by default". I believed we all at some point start from here and through conscious efforts move up the ladder.
This level is characterized by persistent shifting off responsibilities to others. Individuals here blame and make excuses for every failure or misfortune they experience.
Reinforced by the weird believe that the world is so unfair to them ALONE and instead of directing their efforts towards getting something better out of the crises ridden world, such individuals would rather throw their hands up and blame everything else but themselves.
This is the second level of Self awareness where individuals start condensing their daily actions (inactions) into belief systems.
Strong belief system that guide actions and behavior going forward. The system also determines our outlook into the world. The belief we form is critical to our future trajectory.
The level of success we can aim towards and how we assess success are all determined at this stage.
This is a wrap on the very first two steps on the Self-Awareness ladder.
Watch out for the others in subsequent posts.
