By swami dayanand saraswati jayanti is the first of our self-awareness series that will tackle the question of “what is self-awareness”—and how it can be used to grow and develop a positive, joyful life. It will be a book about how to cultivate awareness and how it can work to help you live a more balanced life.
I don’t know about you, but that’s not something I’m going to be doing much of today. I’m going to do some reading and think about some cool stories, and I’m going to be writing my blog for a couple hours.
Okay, so what is self-awareness? It’s a process, one that can help you develop a balanced and joyful life. The process of self-awareness is to understand what your habits, routines, impulses, and reactions are. Knowing what they are will help you make choices, and allow you to create a more balanced life. You may think you’re doing it all wrong.
That’s a good thing. The problem is that a lot of people seem to think that developing a balanced life means not knowing yourself. But what about those people who seem to have a balanced life? They’ve got a balanced life of good habits, routines, impulses, and reactions. What they seem to be missing, is being aware of how they’re doing it.
People who seem to have a balanced life are often those who are most conscious of their environment, and how their actions affect that environment. For example, if youre a person who tends to wear the same item of clothing for each day, you probably aren’t aware of how that affects your environment. You probably wouldn’t be able to think about it, either.
The same goes for most of us who sit in front of our computers for most of the day. We don’t think about how they might impact our environment, because we’re too busy thinking about our work. But the same goes for most of us who are not aware of how they affect the environment around them.
The problem is that we don’t think of anything for a very long time. We dont think about the other side of the coin that is affecting our environment and the other side of our environment is affecting us. For example, if youre a person who tends to wear the same item of clothing for each day, you probably arent aware of how that affects your environment. You probably wouldnt be able to think about it, either.
Well there is a way to think this in a more conscious way. This is called “habits”, and its the things we do repeatedly that are affecting the environment around us. So if you are having a hard day and you notice that you’re not wearing the same clothes for each day, that means you’re having a hard day. You’re doing something repetitive that is affecting the environment around you.
This is something I learned about when I was in high school. I had a friend who was a class president and he had two classes. One of these classes was to get to know my teacher. He would come and talk to me in class and he would talk about how much he liked me, how much he liked my dad, how he liked my mom, etc etc. That was pretty cool, but the second class was to do a project.
This is something that I have been hearing about a lot from people in the IT industry, especially about the recent layoffs. One of the things that I noticed is that most of these people are being laid off doing something that they love. In many cases, they are doing “white hat” things by cleaning up their offices, cleaning up their servers, or doing maintenance work. These are all things that I think are cool and that I love doing.
