Activity To Complete After The Self-Awareness Questions

Completing these self-awareness questions will help you narrow in on how you’re feeling in this exact moment. Perhaps you start to see a pattern of self-doubt or a lack of self-confidence, or maybe you discover that it’s time to treat yourself to more self-love.

Maybe you’ll see that you’ve accomplished a lot in the previous month or need to spend more time doing a specific activity that makes you happy, relaxed, excited, etc.

The next step is to acknowledge any patterns or deep-rooted feelings the self-awareness questions revealed, and to then take the proper steps to improve yourself this month.

For example, if you notice that you have been overly stressed but have also spent a significant amount of time watching television, perhaps you’ll want to decrease the Netflix binging this month and take the time to practice longer meditation sessions. Maybe you notice that you’re entirely content with your life – that’s wonderful! Now, think about why and how you can keep that same feeling flowing into this month.

This self-awareness quiz will help you see where you’re at in this moment while also helping you determine what needs to change or improve moving forward. Often times, our minds, bodies and spirits yearn for change, even if it’s the smallest of adjustments.

Without self-awareness, it can be difficult to determine what exactly that is or worse, we carry on through life as if we’re pre-programmed robots. Sometimes, we just need to check in and make sure that we aren’t just going through the motions of life but truly, fully living it.
