Today I want to share my observations on how my “Self Awareness” muscle is helping me. I also can understand the following thoughts and feelings that may crop up for my audience when they read or listen to this piece.

To quote a few:

Do I care about your workout commitment to you?

It’s easy for you to do but not for me. I have so many things going on in my life.

You probably need attention and that is why you are doing it.

I don’t have time for doing exercises or writing or podcasting.

To me, these are non-revenue-producing activities and not worth my time.

First I want to agree and accept all those thoughts and feelings because I too get them and can relate to them. You have full right to think, feel and act the way you want to. So my dear audience we both belong to the same club.

What are my observations on my “Self Awareness” muscle while doing this 12-week Home Workout program and specifically today?

I have started observing what I no longer think or feel that used to think or feel previously. To give you some examples:

I did not feel guilty or shameful because I took more gap between the fouth.

At the same time, I was able to trust myself with the commitment to doing the 12-week program. Normally I would feel bad for not keeping up with a schedule. In my opinion, this is a powerful observation. At the same time as of now, I am having the grit to continue.

I allowed spontaneity and interruptions more gracefully than I used to. Recognizing that I am allowing spontaneity and interruptions to embrace other areas such as contribution to community needs ( my volunteering activity) while committing to my personal fitness is truly a valuable insight for me.

Even though there are several people who accomplish so much, I don’t feel stupid or silly to share my mundane routine by way of an article or podcast or status updates, which I used to previously. My new mindset is “ To do my best to help people explore their Magnificent Self regardless of what they do for a living just by valuing their mundane chores in a Divine way”.

Why do I think it is important for each person to understand and boldly strengthen their “Self Awareness” muscle?

It makes you listen to and befriend your Body, Emotions, and Mind.
You get better and better at embracing loneliness when you are physically alone without fearing your anxious irrational thoughts.
You get better and better at becoming comfortable with yourself even when you are among a group of people with different personalities or varied interests.
You get better and better at becoming mindful of what you do or don’t do, what you experience and don’t experience, and who you are becoming.

With that said I want to leave you with my intention to do my best to help you all while I pursue strengthening my “Self Awareness” muscle. Thank you all for being a part of my 12-week Home Working out Program. Have a fantastic day!
