Become a Jumbo Jet

Become a Jumbo Jet

Fellas, if you want the freedom to live in the moment then you need to work on your self awareness.

If you want to be calm and relaxed more often than not you need to work on your self awareness.

Self Awareness is like a muscle. It needs to be trained and worked hard, and the more you do that, the more you do the repetitions, the stronger your self awareness muscle becomes.


How do I know if my self awareness needs work?

Here’s some indicators:

Self Doubt: If you’re doubting yourself, procrastinating, waiting for the ‘right’ time to act, feeling like you’re inadequate and you’re lacking the confidence to be decisive

Loneliness: If you’re feeling isolated and alone particularly in the context of your relationship or struggles with career challenges

Overwhelm: If you’re current circumstances are making you feel overwhelmed and anxious, whether that's related to work, relationships or self improvement goals

Uncertainty: If you have a pervasive sense of uncertainty about the future or a lack of clarity about how to navigate life's challenges

Frustration: If you’re frustrated with yourself or your circumstances, and you feel trapped by recurring patterns or unresolved personal issues

What will increased self awareness lead to?

Here’s the obvious answer, a better understanding of yourself. This leads to a better understanding of others. It will help you develop your compassion and empathy.

It will make you a nicer and more pleasant person to be around.

It will help you have more clarity about exactly what you want from life and exactly who you want to be.

You’ll feel more self-assured and confident in yourself and your abilities.

You’ll have deeper connections in your relationships and have more of a sense of belonging in your relationships and communities.

You will feel empowered to make positive changes in your life and overcome the inevitable obstacles that life throws at us.

It will give you a greater sense of purpose and fulfilment, because you can ensure your daily actions align with your core values and a clear set of priorities.

You will feel more certain, nothing in life is guaranteed and we all have to live with uncertainty but if you know your own mind you will have more certainty about your path in life which will allow you to make decisions with confidence and conviction.


The Microlite Analogy

Imagine you are an aircraft….

If you haven’t worked hard on your self awareness you are like a Microlite. 

You have everything you need to fly.

An engine and wings.

And you can fly… until something unexpected happens

Strong winds, a storm, a collision….

The curve balls that life often throws at us

Horrendous loss or sudden change

The Microlite just falls from the sky

No protection, no failsafe, no escape. Crash!

If you work hard on your self awareness you are like a Jumbo Jet.

It took some investment to create but you are now a big strong machine

You can fly great distances

And handle storms, high winds and collisions

Most problems that come.

You fly much higher than a Microlite

And have fail safes on your engines and more room for recovery

So when life chucks the inevitable shit storms at you

You continue to fly

With much more scope for recovery

Are you a Microlite or a Jumbo Jet?
