Hi friends!! Today I will be talking about a really important value which is everyone's need but most of us lack. It is none other than self - awareness. So, what is self- awareness. Self awareness is a skill that focuses on a child's ability to analyse  his own performance and behaviour and to respond accordingly to different social situations. Self awareness helps a child to tune his emotions and understanding with that of the others. For example, a child successfully uses self awareness skills when he / she does not speak loudly in a library where other children are trying to study. So , self awareness here involves tuning in to one ‘s feelings and thoughts in a socially recognized manner and helping one understand how other people see him. Self awareness involves  introspection as to how a person acts in accordance with his thoughts and feelings and how his thoughts and feelings affect himself and others. For developing self awareness games are very helpful to children. Some video games allow children to practice that self awareness while in engrossing gaming experience. The players to think in order to overcome challenges and some sports require cooporation and understanding between two players  There are two kinds of self awareness   public self awareness  and personal self awareness,personal self awareness is when a person is aware of something about himself that other people are not  is called personal self awareness for example  while reading in class, he experiences  the feeling of butterfly in his stomach as a signal that he is nervous  it is only experienced by him. The public self awareness is when a person is aware of how other people are reacting towards him Now let's see how iit can help a child to grow It helps to identify what are they required to do to be socially acceptable, detect their shortcomings in studies and make the necessary corrections understand and talk about other people's feelings  other people needs and feelings how they will affects others monitor and reflect upon themselves control their emotions  reactions and behaviour and understand where it will be helpful to them  and maintain good relationships with people they interact with.I hope this posts adds some value to your life and contributes in your growth.
