(00:20) The Power of Intention and Self-Awareness

We can become more self-aware to better understand our own motives and intentions. We can ask ourselves what are we trying to get out of our interactions and become aware of the difference between doing something to give rather than doing something to get. Self-awareness can be a lifetime project as we can sometimes hide our self-centeredness even when we think we are doing something for the right reasons. We have to be honest with ourselves and ask how does this make me feel and trust the feedback. Life tends to reflect the energy that we put into it, so if we are going out into life mostly trying to get, we will find life reflecting that back to us.
