Do You Have Self-Awareness?

The Hidden Muscle Behind Every Transformation

You can’t change what you don’t even know exists. — Karina Rabin

“You are living the expression of your subconscious programming. Wake up.” — Bob Proctor “Self-awareness is like training in the gym. If you skip the reps, you don’t grow.” — Arnold Schwarzenegger

What Is Self-Awareness?

Self-awareness is the ability to see yourself objectively — to observe your thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and habits without shame, blame, or denial. It’s your inner mirror. And without it, you’re just reacting to life instead of creating it.

Most people think they’re self-aware.But let me challenge you with a bold truth:

If your results haven’t changed, you’re not as self-aware as you think.

Signs You Lack Self-Awareness

• You blame outside forces for your results (job, partner, time, genetics)

• You say you want change, but your daily actions don’t reflect it

• You keep quitting things that you “swear” matter to you

• You get defensive when given feedback

• You repeat the same patterns and expect different outcomes

  
  

Bob Proctor would say:

“Your outside world is a reflection of your inside world. You can’t fix your life without first fixing your paradigm.”

Discipline Requires Awareness

When I started training for a bikini show, I knew exactly what I ate, how I trained, how I slept, and how I thought. Success doesn’t come from guessing. It comes from knowing.

I train my thoughts like I train my body.

That’s real self-awareness. It’s not just what you do — it’s why you do it.

Emotional Awareness Is Power

Most people are running on autopilot — reacting, numbing, avoiding.

• You stress-eat without knowing why.

• You procrastinate and tell yourself you’re “lazy.”

• You snap at loved ones and call it “just a bad day.”

  
  

But beneath every action is an emotional root.

Self-awareness helps you pause and ask:

• What am I really feeling right now?

• What story am I telling myself?

• Is this reaction based on the present or my past?

Bob Proctor: The Subconscious Runs the Show

Bob taught that your paradigm — your mental programming — runs 96% of your behavior.

“You are not a victim of your genetics, your job, or your past. You are a victim of your paradigm until you become aware.”

That means even your weight, income, relationships, and confidence are by-products of subconscious beliefs you didn’t choose. But once you see them, you can change them.

How to Build Self-Awareness (Daily Reps)

Here’s your training plan for developing this invisible muscle:

1. Daily Check-Ins

Ask yourself:

• How do I feel right now?

• What thought caused that feeling?

• Is that thought true or just familiar?

  
  

2. Write, Don’t Just Think

Use a journal. Your mind will lie to you, your pen won’t.

3. Observe Without Judgment

This is not about fixing you. It’s about knowing you.

4. Study Your Triggers

Every trigger is a teacher. If you get angry, jealous, or scared — go inward.

5. Align Action With Intention

You say you want confidence — do your actions build or destroy it?
