Man in the Mirror Project - Raising Awareness within Yourself


Raising awareness means to come clean with your dirt.  What do I have to learn?  Who can I count on?  What am I looking to get out of life?  These are all questions each one of us should be asking ourselves.  The answers to the questions can be quite telling.  Are we listening to what we are becoming aware of or are we repeating the same mistakes?

Openness to awareness like this allows us to be guided more properly on our journey through life.  It is valuable to know you are loved, but even more valuable to know the hidden routines you fail to look at within yourself on a daily basis.  Self inquisition then is one way to begin the process of unraveling this mystery.  Begin with asking yourself questions like why do I think this way, or how do I feel about this person.  Ask yourself why you may keep certain people in your life and then may not want others there.  Trust what you get and don't judge it.  The answers will be the key to your current state of awareness.  You don't have to change anything, you just have to notice.

We mention these things because it is this exact type of hidden agenda that we all have that can keep us from uniting with our flames.  If we continually sabotage ourselves without our knowledge, how will we ever learn from our mistakes and move on?

It has been said before that you can't control what someone else does, but you can control how you respond.  Sometimes no response is the best policy.  Other times we have to look at our part in what has played out in our lives and change something.  It is the realization in the "what" we have to change that will be the key indication that you have been successful in raising your awareness.

Hello again, Deborah. "Cleaning house" of all bad habits and rude behaviour in our interactions with other people... To many this is a daunting task even among those wish to reform themselves. But it can be done as our higher selves are ever so eager to assist and encourage our personal growth. Identifying our bad habits is a very good start, and all who put some effort into the process of reforming or transforming themselves, can certainly succeed. If only the will is there, the way will be found by those who are serious about seeing positive results. Have a Good Night. -Reni
