Self-awareness

Developing self-awareness is important for better relationships and for a more fulfilling life, both in the work place and at home.
Approaches
1. Psychometric Tests
  1. giving people an objective view of how they behave, and how they compare in outlook with others
    1. It´s difficult to be objetive when we think about ourselves
2. Sampling New Experiences
  1. Our reactions or responses to new environments, new people, or new demands can help us understand how we deal with some of the more familiar aspects of our lives.
    1. rather than waiting for new experiences to arrive, it can be really valuable to look for them proactively.
    2. We may find hidden talents, or things about ourselves that we didn't know about
3. Daily Writing
  1. for people who write about their experiences and feelings, this regular writing improves their self-awareness.
    1. This habit also captures the mood of the moment - when reviewed at a later date, the collection of writing can help the writer understand the range of emotions he or she has experienced.
4. Defining Your Role
  1. Describing the role each of us plays, builds a picture of how we see ourselves relative to others.
  2. the way the person being coached perceives his or her role can help you understand their underlying motivation for achieving tasks and goals.
