 Self-Reflection
Self-reflection is about taking the time to think about yourself and your
own life. We are so busy that we rarely take the time to self-reflect.
There are many different areas of our lives that we can reflect on. For
example:
•Are you happy?
•How do you feel about yourself?
•Do you feel healthy?
•Are you managing your time well?
•Are you organized?
Self-reflection is basically
answering questions about
yourself and how you
personally feel about things.

You can reflect about things

that are happening right now,
have happened in the past or
are going to happen in the
future.
 Benefits of Self-Reflection

• Help you put things into perspective

• Help you stay on track with your goals
• Increase your awareness of time management
• Help you get on touch with your true feelings
• Help you understand work/life balance
• Help you recognize and celebrate your successes
• Help you learn from your mistakes
Self-reflection about things that have
already happened allows you to look
with hindsight.

Hindsight is the recognition of the

realities, possibilities, or requirements
of a situation, event, decision etc., after
it happens.

How do you think reflecting

about things that have
happened can be helpful?
 Tips
• You can practice self-reflection just about anywhere. You should make
self-reflection a part of your daily habit even if it is only for a few
minutes.
• Try self-reflecting in different ways. You can write a journal, think while
you are exercising, or write out a list of accomplishments.
• Being relaxed can help you self-reflect. Try some deep breathing
exercises or even meditation.
