In high school, you could a self-aware, however in high school most people have more of a superficial awareness, how you are thought of from other people is how you look at yourself. Knowing your limits, ie. what you can and what you cant do. As you mature and become more self-aware, you can grow into situations and become more comfortable. Self awareness: conscious process when we ponder who we are. We must know self in order to understand others. Involves cognitive, affective and behavioral components, (thinking, feeling, and acting). Understanding of emotions, values, beliefs, attitudes and behaviours.
