Action Oriented

Resting on the solid foundations of your belief systems, this third level of Self Awareness guides our daily activities.

What activities you get engaged in , what cause of action you direct your actions. This level of Self Awareness is quite visible almost by default and obvious to everyone.

Because of the frequency of time you engage in certain activities, people starts associating such actions to individuals. This level is a bit beyond individual control zone because we can't control how people form opinion on the actions we exhibit daily.

while individuals can control belief systems, actions are formed out of them and can't be easily controlled.

This is why it is hard to break some habits if the root cause of such actions/habit is left unchecked.

Values and Principles

These are the ideals we stand for as individuals. At this level individuals have achieved a certain level of personal will that makes those values and principles unbreakable

Perception and feelings of others become irrelevant if they contradict your values and principles at this point.

Think of Mother Theresa and her resolve to helping the destitute. The values and principles make us little less like a water Lilly that get driven by every form of opinion.

The insecurity of acting contrary to popular opinion is also gone at this stage. You can now truly say "Your words is your bonds".

Rigid and firm individuals exist at this stage of Self Awareness. It doesn't matter your own judgement of them as good or bad, they are firm with strong values and principles they will rather die than break.
