Answer: I’ve learned that having a clear understanding of one’s thought
and behavioral patterns helps you understand other people. This ability to empathize facilitates better personal and professional relationships. To know yourself is your first priority!

• Why is it important to Understand the Self in a rapid changes of
the world today when it comes to human identity?
Answer: It is important to Understand the Self in a rapid changes of the
world today when it comes to human identity, the more you know about yourself, the better who you are in adapting life, and such changes that suit your needs. The more you pay attention to your emotions and how you work, the better you will understand why you do the things you did. The more you know about your own habits, the easier it is to improve yourself. When it comes to human identity, Self awareness is important when we have a better understanding of ourselves; we are able to experience ourselves as unique and separate individual. We are then empowered to make changes and to build on our areas of strength as well as identify where we would like to make improvements. • How this subject helps you to have a deeper understanding of what it means to be humans?
Answer: This subject helps me a lot to have a deeper understanding of
what it means to be human, humans are often compared and contrasted with animals and machines. Some of these specific qualities are the ability to interpret, free will, and the use of language, but what does it really mean to be human? Humans unlike any other creature can describe an exciting experience, or tell a scary story. Through speech we can say, "I don't know," which is the first step to gaining understanding and knowledge. Humans are more than just mere creatures of nature because of the art of remembering, recalling, and through language either written or spoken. People's identity is formed through their moral behavior and conscience, thus making us human.
• Does the subject relevant to your daily living?
Answer: Yes, this subject is very relevant in my daily living, knowing
myself means respecting (but not attaching to) my strengths and weaknesses, my passions and fears, my desires and dreams, my thoughts and feelings, my likes and dislikes, my tolerances and limitations.
Therefore, the greatest lesson is to go from understanding to realization.
Realization is when our eyes, our real eyes open. When we open our real eyes, then we realize the truth about life, then we realize the meaninglessness, uselessness of anger, hate, revenge, jealousy. Then we realize the power of God that is everywhere, in everything. As long as we don't realize it, understanding is of no use.
The greatest lesson that may be learned by FIRST knowing yourself,then
empathizing yourself and THEN understanding yourself,is that you now “see” others far more deeply than you once did and it is much easier,natural- in fact,to empathize with others. In time one may find forgiveness becomes second nature,speeding up the process of self knowledge exponentially. In summation,the greatest lesson from self understanding is a far richer interior life and a far sighted exterior view of the storm of creation.
• Final Message and comment about the subject
Answer: My final message and comment to this subject is that I find it as an interesting subject that can help the individual know thyself and that many of us operate on the belief that we must appear as though we know everything all the time or else people will question our abilities, and then perhaps judge us. If you are honest with yourself, you admit that the opposite is really true, whether you acknowledge your weaknesses or not, everyone still sees them. So rather than conceal them, the person who tries to hide their weaknesses is actually highlights them, creating the perception of lack, of integrity, and self-awareness.
