Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey, everyone, it's your boy Logan Cruz here back with
another episode of the Dopamine Grind. We're diving deep into
something super crucial today. Self awareness. You know that feeling
when you make a decision and later on you're like,
what was I thinking? Ever felt that pang of regret?

(00:21):
Wishing you could hit the rewind button? Trust me, we've
all been there. But what if I told you there's
a way to avoid those moments of what if? What
if there's a superpower we can all unlock to make
decisions that truly serve us, not leave us scratching our heads.
That's exactly what we're breaking down today. Self awareness is

(00:42):
like the ultimate GPS for your life. It's about knowing
your strengths, weaknesses, values, triggers, the whole shebang, and using
that knowledge to navigate through life's twists and turns with
more confidence and clarity. So buckle up because we're about
to unpack five game changing takeaways that will level up

(01:05):
your decision making skills. One, know your values. Think of
values like your internal compass. They guide your actions and
shape your priorities. What truly matters most to you? Is
it honesty, creativity, adventure, security. Figure out what fuels your fire,

(01:26):
what makes you tick, and let those values be the
foundation for every decision you make. Remember, a decision that
aligns with your values will bring you lasting satisfaction, even
if it's not always the easiest path. Two. Embrace your strengths.
We all have unique talents and abilities. What are you

(01:48):
naturally good at. Maybe you're a brilliant communicator, a creative
problem solver, or an organizational whiz. When you understand your strengths,
you can leverage them to make decisions that play to
your natural advantages. Think of it like choosing the right
tool for the job. Using your strengths will help you

(02:09):
achieve better results and feel more fulfilled. Three. Acknowledge your weaknesses.
This one's a bit tougher, but trust me, it's essential.
We all have areas where we could improve. Recognizing these
weaknesses allows us to be more objective about our decisions
instead of pretending we're superhumans. Let's be real. If you

(02:31):
know you struggle with procrastination, don't take on a project
with an unrealistic deadline. Be honest with yourself and seek
support when needed. Four. Identify your triggers. We all have
those situations or people that push our buttons. Maybe it's
a specific type of criticism, a certain tone of voice,

(02:54):
or a particular social environment. Recognizing your triggers allows you
to anticipate but potential reactions and make more conscious decisions.
When you're aware of what sets you off, you can
develop strategies to manage those situations effectively. Five Practice mindfulness.

(03:14):
This is about paying attention to the present moment without judgment.
Take time to check in with yourself regularly. What are
your thoughts and feelings? How are you responding to different situations.
By practicing mindfulness, you become more attuned to your internal
landscape and can make decisions that are aligned with your

(03:35):
authentic self. Imagine this, You're at a networking event, feeling
overwhelmed by all the people. You have the option to
either retreat into your comfort zone or step outside of
it and connect with someone new. But because you've practiced
self awareness, you realize that stepping out of your comfort

(03:55):
zone is where the real magic happens. Identify your value,
making genuine connections, and even though your heart is racing
a little, you take the leap and start a conversation.
See self awareness isn't just some abstract concept. It's a
powerful tool that can transform your life. It's about knowing

(04:17):
yourself deeply, embracing both your strengths and weaknesses, and using
that knowledge to make decisions that lead to greater fulfillment, happiness,
and success. So let me ask you this, what's one
area where you want to improve your self awareness. Maybe
it's recognizing your triggers, understanding your values better, or simply

(04:38):
paying more attention to your inner voice. Take a moment
right now, jot down that specific area and commit to
taking small steps each day to cultivate greater self knowledge.
Remember this is a journey, not a destination. And hey,
if you found value in today's episode, share it with
a friend who could benefit from this powerful reminder. Let's

(05:02):
spread the self awareness revolution. Until next time, keep grinding,
keep growing, and never stop evolving. Peace Out. This podcast
