Self-Awareness

Conscious knowledge of one’s own character, feelings, motives, and desires.

Self-awareness has a close relationship with self-love and self-acceptance. It’s one thing to be self-aware. It’s another thing to look in the mirror and say, “Hey, you’re not good at X.”

The best part of acknowledging your weaknesses is that you can then start navigating around them. For example, I don’t have the work ethic to put up a painting on a wall, because I don’t like doing it. So, I’ll find someone else to do it.
