Self-awareness is the first step in mastering your life. Whatever you are unhappy with right now, changing things starts with becoming aware of your own behavior and thoughts.

We all have patterns we get stuck in, but we're powerless to break out unless we realize what the issue is.

How to become more self-aware?

1. Pay attention to your thoughts and feelings

This is a skill we all need to develop, meditation helps a lot.

2. Keep a journal

It's easy! Just jot things down in a notebook everyday, or use an app.

3. Write down your goals

Having clear goals gives you something to aim at. Again, there's apps around for this.

4. Take a personality test

You can find out so much about yourself by simply answering a few questions.

A good friend will be honest and tell you the truth about who you really are.


If you're looking to start somewhere, start with self-awareness.
