If you don’t first understand yourself, you’ll never be able to understand and interact with the world around you. We’ve talked about the concept of emotional intelligence a lot on the Human Optimization Project, with the four main components being 1) Self-Awareness; 2) Self-Management; 3) Social-Awareness, and 4) Social-Management. Today, we are going to focus on all things related to “Self-Awareness.” Our expert to help us with this is executive coach, Kimberly Collins.

 

The three big questions we have for her are:

1. What is Self-Awareness, and how does it fit into the bigger picture of “Emotional Intelligence”?

2. Why is true Self-Awareness rare, and what modern traps keep us from understanding ourselves?

3. What steps can one take to start improving their Self-Awareness in a meaningful way?
