You should focus on... Self-Awareness
You’re the unanimously voted Life of the Party, always ready to entertain and eager for the next challenge or new thing.When it comes to hidden talents, you have an embarrassment of riches, but having so many things come easily can be a disadvantage all by itself.Being a gifted Jack of All Trades can leave you adrift, wondering what your real passion and purpose in life is.For someone with such a seemingly strong sense of self, you can sometimes struggle with self-improvement, which can all be tied back to self-awareness. Or lack thereof.The real challenge for you is choosing the right life for you, instead of just accepting the life you find yourself easily falling into.How do you know if you’re aware enough to know you need to work on self-awareness?Tick some boxes with me. Do you:✅ Avoid sitting still or idle✅ Feel too overwhelmed by your past choices to learn from them, so you just try to ignore them✅ Want to find peace and contentment, but every time you’re almost there, panic sets in✅ Think vulnerability seems like a nice thing... for other people✅ Focus on career, relationships, and success, instead of yourself✅ Don’t trust yourself to learn from your mistakesIt’s ok, we all struggle with self-awareness sometimes, so if you don’t check any boxes, go back and try again, but be honest with yourself this time.“When I discover who I am, I’ll be free.”— Ralph EllisonGet To Know YourselfFoundations are the building blocks of fun!Therapy is an often misunderstood practice, and while it does involve talking about feelings, it’s more about taking a closer look inside yourself to see what really makes you tick.Don’t you want to learn more about why you do the things that you do?And how to address some of the ways you unknowingly sabotage yourself?Other than learning to Trust, let’s take a look at some of the foundations of therapy.1. Balance – The key to a happy life isn’t abundance and neverending chill days, it’s all about balance. The grind of day-to-day life can become a repetitive, life-sucking rut if you aren’t careful to create healthy boundaries between work, play, and the everyday. With the help of a therapist, you can delve deep into where your imbalances come in life, and how to make changes to restore a much needed life balance. Check out our online workshop on Balance and Your To-Do List2. Trust – Something that we all struggle with, trust in others is a pretty tall order some days.Even more difficult, is trusting ourselves.Every day comes with new challenges and demands and it’s easy to put yourself last when the need calls for it — but always putting yourself last means you violate your own self-trust, time and time again.Learn to honor and trust yourself before you can trust others.Check out our online workshop on Learning to Trust.Self-Awareness is a core focus of any therapeutic journey. Check out our Online Self-Awareness Workshop to learn more about yourself, and how you can align your life with who you truly are. 3. Self-Worth – It can be very difficult to establish and maintain boundaries that are meant to protect your peace when you’re constantly putting others before yourself. It isn’t bad to want to help others, but when your selflessness becomes a complete loss of self, it’s time to do some work on your own core values and boundaries. Learn how to show up as an advocate for yourself so you can give your loved ones empowered, resounding ‘yes’s and firm, healthy ‘no’s, without feeling guilty or selfish. Join our Boundary Badass Challenge on Instagram to build up your self-worth and finally love yourself as much as you love everyone else.The Truth About Therapy...Hey there, I'm Ann Robinson (she/her) 👋 I help courageous people (just like you) change their lives from the inside out.
