Are You Willing?

Self-awareness requires something of us and that can feel daunting, but it is doable.  

Anyone seeking self-awareness needs to have a willingness to engage in this life-long process. Many people don’t know how they need to improve and some think they don’t need to. Wherever you are in the process, willingness is a vital step to our self-awareness and self-management. 

What does willingness require of me? 

What does growing in my faith look like?

Being open hearted and open minded is key to our attitude of willingness when seeking self-awareness. The support of others as we seek to listen well to God and be transparent helps us and keeps us motivated.  

Generosity might be another way we can think of being open-hearted and open minded towards God and others — are you generous with God and others? Will you share your self?

As you move forward with this process, seek transparency with God , tell Jesus how you’re feeling, the things you’re excited about, things you shy away from. Pray that Jesus will help build your trust as you follow where he leads in this experience.
