Socrates once said 'To know thyself is the beginning of Wisdom''. Getting to know yourself is about understanding your VITAL Signs. I have listed for you the 6 VITAL Signs of Self-Knowledge.
VITAL Sign 1 : V for Values Core values are fundamental beliefs, guiding principles that make you understand the difference between right and wrong. Thinking about your core values will help you better understand who you are. In an ever-changing world, your core values will be constant and will drive your motivation through anything.
VITAL Sign 2 : I for Interests If you are unsure about what your interests are, just ask yourself these questions. What are you curious about? What attracts your attention? Knowing your interests can tell you a lot about your personality and can shape up your career path. Have you built your career around a deep interest?
VITAL Sign 3 : T for Temperament The temperament is a person's natural predisposition to react to situations. Are you of a sanguine (enjoys life, needs discipline), choleric (makes decisions on the spot, sticks to their goals), melancholic (pays attention to detail, looks for perfection), or phlegmatic (maintain a peaceful atmosphere, avoids stress) temperament? Knowing your temperament will help you behave better in your personal and professional life.
VITAL Sign 4 : A for Around-the-Clock Activities This VITAL Sign is about your biorhythm. What time of day do you feel more energetic? Are you a morning or evening person? Syncing your daily life to your innate biological needs will help your day be more pleasant. It will also unlock the key to being more productive!
VITAL Sign 5 : L for Life Mission Ask yourself this question : What have been the most meaningful events in your life? Understanding what gives meaning to your life may unveil clues to your identity, to your career, or simply to what brings satisfaction in your life.
VITAL Sign 6 : S for Strength Think about your skills and your character strengths. Also think of your weaknesses and be honest with yourself. Imagine your strengths are superpowers and wear them like a power suit!
Think about how you feel and not how you should feel. Knowing yourself will make you feel stronger and will also save you a lot of energy! Are you ready? :)
