Self Reflection
Self-reflection is a mental process to grow your understanding of who you are, what your values are, and why you think, feel, and act the way you do.
“Your higher self lives in a state of oneness with the highest potential within you, as well as the highest potential within all of humankind. It acts as your conscience, knowing innately that you will only be happy when you treat others as you would like them to treat you.” — Rhys Thomas
“The Universe is not punishing you or blessing you. The Universe is responding to the vibrational attitude that you are emitting. The more joyful you are, the more well-being flows to you — and get to choose the details of how it flows.” — Pure positive energy — Abraham Hicks
“Nothing stands between me and my dreams. I only have to maintain my self belief, trust my intuition and act with clarity, determination and kindness. When my energies are aligned in this way the Universe supports my every action.” — Linda Field Life Coach
“I am powerful, loving and wise. I am centered in my essence. I am honoring my own inner worth. I am counting my blessings. I am healing power of the Universe. I am loved and loving, healed and whole.” — Pinterest.com
“I believe in a higher power. I have no need, or desire to wrap on identity around it, because religion’s obsession with ‘the right identity’ has caused separation of our planet’s people — and believe in love and unity, regardless of our spiritual beliefs. Whether we call it — God source, The Universe, Buddha whatever, doesn’t matter to me. My eyes, ears, and heart are open to the wisdom, beauty and miracles that surround us constantly. That juices me beyond words.” — Pinterest.com
Self-reflection is a skill that can help you understand yourself better and improve your mental health. Self-reflection involves being present with yourself and intentionally focusing your attention inward to examine your thoughts, feelings, actions, and motivations to nurture yourself and grow accordingly. According to Kristin Wilson Active self-reflection can help grow your understanding of who you are, what values you believe in, and why you think and act the way you do. It explores the benefits and importance of self-reflection, as well as some strategies to help you practice it and incorporate it into your daily life. Self-reflection is important because it helps you form a self-concept and contributes toward self-development. Self-reflection is critical because it contributes to your self-concept, which is an important part of your identity. It includes your thoughts about your traits, abilities, beliefs, values, roles, and relationships. It plays an influential role in your mood, judgment, and behavioral patterns.
The self reflection is base for everything. It gives answers for our past, present and future. The past gives an experience. The present tells us what to do? How? When? Where? Why? The most important question is whether to do or not also is an important point. It helps to determine and dedicate to sacrifice and focus more on our desired goals. Decision making is crucial. In any case we can’t decide and do it immediately. No doubt, some occasions it happens. But most of the times we plan well and do our jobs accordingly. Planning gives clarity. We can visualize, live and love it. We take sufficient steps where required. We consider for improvement if necessary. We study and understand better based on the results we get and allow us to grow accordingly. We come to know the facts and figures in real life. The truth is in front of us. As a matter of fact, your present determines your future. It plays an active role in real life. If your past is a text book, the present is a guide to follow and implement it for the bright future. It makes you to rectify the mistakes where you did and allow not to repeat the same mistake again. As human beings we commit mistakes on regular basis. Never commit the same mistake again and again. Try your level best. Learn on each and every step what you put forward. Stabilize yourself. It gives ability and strength to move forward with one step to reach miles and miles in your journey to reach the destination safely and securely well in time is the right way of approach. Keep on doing. Never stop in middle till you reach your goal irrespective of the obstacles and hurdles that occur in middle. Determination is key for everything. Dedication is part of responsibility. Sacrifice is your way of living. Focus is your style of work. When you focus on your desired goal it happens with your effort. Effort will never go waste. It has its value. Your effort is your valuable asset. Your effort should be higher than your goal. Then only it happens in reality. Realize! Recollect! Respect! Respond!
I agree about the importance of self-reflection. Over many years, and with a lot of difficulty in the beginning, I have cultured a habit of doing this regularly. It keeps you humble and behaving toward others as you would want to be treated. Thanks for this, Bijibilla!
