Self-awareness is not just about self

What’s up people!

It’s a gorgeous Monday evening in sunny Melbourne and I’m on the couch with my girl and kids absolutely loving life. Why wouldn’t I when I’m continually improving the art of self-awareness?! Life is truly transforming as my relationship with myself is on the up and up, always looking to tweak the little things that can make big differences.

With that statement, I got thinking about what I’m doing here and realised over the weekend that the art of self-awareness is not just about self. Remember, I’m not someone who has been formally educated in this arena. I’m merely someone who has read a heap of books on self-improvement and lived for a few years getting to know myself. Moving on…

Over the weekend I had to take note that looking deep within is one thing. Looking outside and interacting with others is another. Why continually improve on the inside if I can’t be good on the outside? It’s almost like being the Buddha with a bad attitude towards others. Not that I have a bad attitude – poorly worded Craig. More that I need to be just as mindful with how I interact with others as much as I interact with myself.

The ability to be self-aware of others has always been something I’ve been mindful but now that I’m taking a deeper dive into my own reality, I’m starting to get a new outlook on what goes on around with the people in my life. And it’s pretty cool to see that I’m starting to have a positive impact.

Anyway, that’s my thoughts for today. I’m loving this journey and love sharing it with you. Hope you do to.

On the road to awesomeness!
