Self-awareness is achieved by recognizing your needs, traits, patterns, preferences, and limitations. How to expand your self-awareness: soliciting feedback. We all have illusions about ourselves, so we need help from others to accurately assess who we are. When we shut down feedback, we eliminate learning and personal development: self-diagnosis. The second way to increase self-awareness is self- diagnosis, which uses self-inquiry and reflection to gain insights into yourself from self-assessment results, such as your scores on assessment instruments in this text: self-disclosure. Means sharing your fears, thoughts, emotions, and concepts of yourself with others. Self-disclosure is crucial to enhancing self-awareness because other people mirror back their reaction to what we do and say so we can see ourselves through their eyes.
