No transformation journey can be complete without SELF-AWARENESS. Self-awareness solves more
than 50% of one’s challenges in life. Many people have challenges, roadblocks and barriers they are not
even aware of! It’s like a plane on auto-pilot mode heading towards a storm while the pilot has lost
connection to the control tower. It would therefore be impossible to experience any kind of
transformation in this state.
Embarking on a personal transformation journey is a courageous and highly rewarding endeavor – Coach Blessed Abby
Whether you are driven by a desire for personal growth, career development or happiness, the path to
self-improvement is filled with both challenges and triumphs. Self-awareness is the key element that
serves as a guiding light in this journey.
WHAT IS SELF-AWARENESS?
It is the ability to recognize and understand one’s own thoughts, emotions, behaviors, their impact on
self and others. It is the foundation upon which any lasting information is built. People go through
motions of life without pausing to reflect on their actions and underlying reasons behind them.
What’s the importance of self-awareness?
o Enhancing Clarity
Most of the clients we work with come to us seeking clarity in different areas of their lives. Self-
awareness helps individuals become clearer on their values, passions and long term goals. It
enables them to align their actions with their authentic selves giving them a sense of purpose
and direction.
o Effective decision making
A deep sense of self-awareness allows individuals to make more informed and intentional
decisions. When our clients do our mirror test which is tailored to help them know themselves
better, they understand their strengths, weaknesses & triggers in a better way. As a result, they
can navigate their challenges with greater resilience and wisdom.
o Enhancing emotional intelligence
People who are in touch with their emotions can manage them more effectively, build stronger
relationships and navigate social situations with more empathy and understanding. They will
respond and not react when situations they don’t agree with occur.
o Ease in adaptability
Most people are driven by beliefs and biases they are not even aware of. Becoming self-aware
makes it easier to adapt and enhances openness to new ideas and perspectives. Self-awareness
therefore acts as a guide through the tides and waves of their transformational journey.
o Enhanced communication
Self-aware individuals are better communicators, They express their thoughts and feelings more
clearly leading to healthier relationships and better collaborations
o Building resilience
As we face the setbacks and challenges of life, self-awareness provides a solid foundation for
resilience. Once individuals acknowledge their vulnerabilities and learn from their failures,
individuals bounce back and are more determined than ever.
o Continuous learning
A self-aware individual views life as a continuous learning process. They turn their failures into
opportunities and are not destroyed by them. They seek opportunities for self-reflection and
personal development, recognizing transformation and growth as an ongoing journey rather
than a destination.
Self-awareness therefore acts as the compass in any transformative journey, guiding individuals towards
authenticity, fulfilment and success. It empowers them to navigate the twists and turns of life with more
grace and resilience.
One has to make a lifelong commitment to understanding oneself at a deeper level.
Self-awareness is therefore the cornerstone that illuminates the path ahead leading to a more
meaningful and purposeful life.
