Understanding who I am

August 22, 2024

Duval and Wicklund noted, “When we focus our attention on ourselves, we evaluate and compare our current behavior to our internal standards and values. We become self-conscious as objective evaluators of ourselves.

Self-awareness is the ability to focus on yourself and how your actions, thoughts or emotions do or don’t align with your internal standards. Try using DISC to see who you are.

DISC is an acronym for the four main personality traits assessed by the test Dominance (D), Influence (I), Steadiness (S) and Conscientiousness (C). Mainly used corporate setting, help you understand your communication and behavior styles.

As a (C), I tend to place an emphasis on quality, accuracy, expertise, and competency. Some may call me a perfectionist; I’ve got to have everything in order.
