Self-awareness can help your dream life come true because, when you understand your emotions, thoughts, and behaviors, you’re able to formulate a plan and take action to make things happen.
Our dreams are a reflection of who we really are. I’m not talking about the dreams where you are riding a horse through the shopping mall, these are the dreams about what you really want to do with your life. These dreams come from a genuine place inside you and reflect your true self. Perhaps they link you to when you were a child and wished you would be an actor or when you graduated from high school and anticipated being a great mathematician.
Then life gets in the way, but it doesn’t have to be that way. You can literally use your self-awareness to tap into your dreams at any time and give them the prominent place in your life that they deserve. Ask yourself the following questions as you connect with what you really want to do with your life:
1. If money or subsistence were of no concern, what would I do with my life above all else?
2. What am I really good at that brings me joy and I could do forever?
3. What career path would bring me true joy in life?
4. What can I do for hours without thinking about time?
The answers to these questions will help you start steering your life toward what you really want to do. You call the shots and get to decide in what direction you move. You choose whether you follow the path toward your dreams or follow an alternate course. I wish you great success in your journey.
What will you do to develop self-awareness and live your dream life?
