Self-reflection

It has been a life long practice.

Life is much more fruitful when I take some time to check in with myself!

Paradoxically, looking inwards, helps me to look outwards.

It brings perspective to your life.

Reflection requires courage.

As you look in the mirror of self-reflection, consider these questions:

Am I using my time wisely?

Am I living true to myself?

What surprised me today?

What am I doing about the things that matter most in my life? What do I need to change about myself?

What mistakes did I make today and what did I learn?

Have I made someone smile today?

It is so easy to get caught up in the daily vicissitudes of life.

Self-reflection is the key to help you understand what you stand for, what your values are, and in essence what matters most.

A time to consider your behaviour, your goals and whether you are on track.

The practice is all about learning, looking back on the day in order to contemplate your behaviour and its consequences.

It requires time to sit with yourself and take an honest moment to think about what emerged, what worked, what didn’t, what can be done, and what can’t.

Daily journaling is a great tool to enable you to capture your reflections.

I believe that the more self-reflective you are the easier it becomes to make choices in line with your values.

Self-reflection has been shown to significantly improve learning and performance.

The more aware you of your choices and their impact, then the better the decisions will be that you make now and in the future.

Take time to self-reflect – daily!
