If you’re looking for ideas of how to improve the way you look, your body image, or how you relate to others, consider what is called the “three levels of self-awareness.” It’s a term coined by British psychologist, Edward de Bono, and it means that we are all aware of a lot of different things.
You dont have to be aware of what you dont know to be aware of what you do know, but the more you know the more you may be aware of what you dont know.
The first level of self-awareness is to acknowledge your strengths and vulnerabilities. Knowing who you are is your strength, knowing that you are vulnerable are your vulnerability. By knowing this you can be more aware of your own needs and desires. The second level of self-awareness is to recognize your thoughts, feelings, and impulses. To do this you have to see yourself as others see you. You need to examine your thoughts, feelings, and impulses without being conscious of them.
Most people aren’t aware of what they are thinking, feeling, or doing. Some people have trouble noticing this and this can lead to all sorts of problems. For example, if you are so confident that you’re right and you constantly feel that you’re on the right path, you will never be honest with people. You will never be honest with yourself.
This is the same reason why people get into arguments. People like to argue because they want to prove that they are right. But that is not what they are doing. They are arguing because they don’t want to change their minds. They know that they might lose and that if they lose they are likely to be disappointed. If they lose, they lose and they know that if they lose they will probably lose because they are wrong. The problem is that they are not honest with themselves.
We can’t control the truth.
The goal of our life is to make others aware of our bad habits and thoughts. If they get angry and put them back into the good books, they will probably lose. We have learned to live with our bad habits, but we also have learned to make people aware of our bad thoughts. This is a pretty straightforward strategy.
I’m not sure this is a good thing in the long run, but it might be something to give people who are prone to bad thoughts a little nudge in the right direction.
I know it sounds harsh, but the only way to actually prevent bad thoughts from happening is to stop thinking about them. If you keep thinking about a bad thought, then it will start to seem real to you, and when it becomes real it will start to seem like a real thought, and you will start to believe that it is actually real. When you stop believing something, it stops being real.
This is a good point. I guess it’s a little like the song “The Man” by the Beatles, where you can hear the song even when it is completely out of your mouth. The point is not to be so open and honest with yourself that you’re afraid to admit you’re not the complete person you think you are. You realize it’s not about what you think; it’s about what is actually inside of you.
