I know myself and am aware of my surroundings.
This line is actually about two things, it’s about knowing yourself and being aware of your surroundings. They are separate thoughts, but also one thought.
First, knowing yourself gives you a great deal of insight into things like what helps you through turmoil, and who you want to be around.
The second part is being aware of your surroundings, because knowledge of them can go a long ways in protecting you.
When you combine them together, they tell you what you can expect of where you are. How you’ll respond to the people around you, the environment around you, and give you the ability to move to action when you’re having difficulty. This is applicable in offline life, and in the online. When you’re on Facebook, knowing that you might encounter people saying things you’re not in a place to deal with can give you the awareness that it might just be better to go to that cat video group you love so much. Or if you’re in a club, it gives you the awareness that someone might put something in your drink while you’re away from it- so you keep that drink with you at all times or at least place trust in someone with you to monitor it when you’re away.
Even in your home, knowing how you respond to things like clutter can inform you on how you will interact with others if it goes unmanaged.
Let’s have some fun and generate a list- what kinds of questions do you think people could use to help them grow to become more knowledgeable of themselves, with regards to their surroundings?
