I am glad that you believe self-awareness is a critical component of how we operate in the world. I am surprised that we have not spent more time on definitions of "the self" this year. It seems to me that to have 24 strengths and not include one that is focused solely on knowing ourselves is somehow incomplete...... Thanks so much and hope to talk to you soon!! Aren Christine,

I agree with you on the importance of self-awareness-- it seems to underlie so many important aspects of the way we operate in the world: relationships, leadership, compassion, and energy. Thanks for writing, Christine Hi Aren,
