Three Components of Self-Awareness and Managing Yourself
Listening, Willingness, & Community
So what is required of me for Self-Awareness and Self-Management?
As we move forward in our journey for greater self-awareness and self-management, there are three components that are essential to deepening our understanding of self. Listening to God and others, willingness, and community are three intertwined concepts that, if we are intentional, flow together and make us available to God for insight and transformation.
Why are listening, willingness, and community so important to self-awareness?
Are you willing and listening in community?
Listening helps us to see more clearly, willingness helps us to engage in the process, and community supports our listening and willingness. The intertwining of these 3 components gives us a fuller picture of who we are and who God has created us to be.
None of these can be effective without the others.
Before the next video, pray through the following questions:
- Am I willing?
- Am I willing to dig deep and be available?
- Do I trust God enough to go where he’s leading me, not just outwardly, but inwardly?
Test Yourself
Answer
Think About It:
As you prayed, did you find you are willing to dig deep and be available? Do you find it easy to listen to God? Do you find community easy? Do you have a good community around you already?
