Self-Knowledge
Self-Knowledge in psychology
is the information an individual draws upon
when answering the questions:
Who am I?
How did I become who I am?
Who do I want to be?"
To answer these questions, you must get to know
yourself through steps such as:
Reflecting curiously the values that drive your behaviour.
Listening openly to how people see and experience you.
Observing carefully your inner conversations about yourself.
Do an Experiment:
What am I thinking, feeling and doing?
Why do I experience this situation this way?
How do my perspectives impact my interactions?
As you go through your day, observe and reflect on
your thoughts, emotions and behavior.
Ask Yourself:
Deeper knowledge of yourself
has the profound power to shape your:
Identity
Sense of Self
Sense of Others
Behaviour and Role in the World
"If most of us remain ignorant of ourselves,
it is because self-knowledge (can be) painful
and we prefer the pleasures of illusion."
Aldous Huxley
