The way we speak, what we say, and what we say to others is all influenced by how we perceive ourselves. People aren’t as self-aware as they think they are.
I think it’s important to be aware of this, especially because it affects our entire society. We all go to a lot of trouble to put forth the best version of ourselves on social media, and there are probably a few people who are aware of this fact and are careful about what language they use. Of course, I’m not talking about Facebook, Google+, or Twitter. I’m talking about the little things that can take you out of the social circle you want to belong to.
The idea of “self-awareness” is a bit fuzzy. It has been the subject of much debate for a long time, and it is definitely a topic of interest to many psychologists and social scientists. In many ways, it is the study of the subject of self-awareness. The term is often used in the context of “self-knowledge” vs. “self-awareness”. Basically, it refers to how well we know ourselves.
Personally I think the concept of self-awareness is a bit nebulous. I think of it as being the ability to recognize how you feel about something. You can do things like say, “I don’t really like pizza,” or “I’m glad I don’t like it,” or “I hate pizza.” We all know we don’t like pizza, and we all know we hate pizza.
Self-awareness is about recognizing our own emotions. I think of it as the ability to recognize what and how we feel and what we think is important to our lives. So, while we can say we hate pizza, and say we dont like pizza, we dont have to say it because they are our feelings, we just have to recognize them.
The word “self-awareness” is not a scientific term, but it is a descriptive one. The idea of self-awareness is related to self-knowledge. We can say, “I have self-awareness” when we can recognize what we feel and think and do. We can say “I am aware of my thoughts and feelings” when we can recognize the thoughts and feelings that come along with our actions.
To self-awareness is to know ourselves. It is to know that we are thinking, feeling, and doing the things we are. It is to recognize our own thoughts and feelings, and to know that we have them. To recognize our thoughts and feelings, we need to be aware of them, to know that they are there. We cannot think or feel, or know or not know, without recognizing the thoughts and feelings that go with them, or without experiencing them and recognizing them.
We all have thoughts, feelings, and actions. If we were aware of ourselves, we would not be able to be so passive-aggressive as to think something, say something, do something without our own awareness. A “self” that is aware of itself does not think, and a self that is not aware of itself does not feel. A self that is aware of itself is just a self, and a self that is not aware of itself is not a self.
So just as we should never be afraid to say that we regret something we’ve done, we should never be afraid to say that we feel something. We don’t have to be aware of ourselves or anything to feel something. That’s not to say that we don’t feel something, we just don’t know what it is. We just don’t have to think about it if we don’t want to.
If you’re not aware of yourself, there is nothing to feel. Feeling is an extension of your awareness, and while we’re not necessarily afraid of the word, we are often afraid to express it. We may not know what it is that we feel, and we may not feel it in the same way that another might, so we avoid the uncomfortable expression. But that doesnt mean we should avoid it.
