Why self-awe is important

  • It’s honest. Considering yourself mediocre just isn’t true. 
  • It reminds you, you are part of something greater
  • It clarifies your mission
  • It removes your limitations. Anything is possible if you are in awe of yourself and believe that the world needs the gifts you possess. 

How to increase your self-awe

  • Body gratitude exercise 
  • Acknowledge weaknesses and note how you’ve managed them 
  • Celebrate your strengths
  • Stop waiting for others to affirm you, affirm yourself so regularly, the comments of others are icing 
  • Do daily reminders of your awesomeness
  • Reflect upon your compliments rather than dismissing them
  • Recognize that many of your accomplishments are attributable to your wondrousness, not luck.
