SELF-AWARENESS

In philosophy of self, self-awareness is the experience of one's own personality or individuality. While consciousness is being aware of your environment and body and lifestyle, self-awareness is the recognition of that awareness. It represents the ability to focus on yourself and how your actions, thoughts or emotions do or don't align with your internal standards. Self-awareness is the ability to see yourself clearly and objectively through reflection and introspection. It is based on the idea that you are not your thoughts, but the entity observing your thoughts; you are the thinker, separate and apart from your thoughts. Self-awareness helps you become a better version of yourself, make the right decisions, and be confident that we can all agree it is vital to be aware of ourselves. You can use this idealized self to keep moving in the right direction and not be distracted by setbacks and other obstacles.
