The Self Worksheet

Who I am?
Our Self-Awareness worksheet (Who am I?) is the first worksheet in a
series of worksheets we use for Self Discovery and Goal Setting. This
Self-Awareness worksheet focuses on discovering “Who am I?.” It is
an all-encompassing worksheet that address talents, qualities, values,
perception, and self-reflection. The other worksheets in the series
focus on a specific aspect of self-Discovery.

Self-Awareness Worksheet
Self-Awareness happens through reflection. You can have numerous
experiences in your life, but still lack self-awareness. You need to take
the time to step outside of your experiences and reflect on them. The
key areas for self-awareness include our personality traits, personal
values, emotions, habits, and the psychological needs that motivate
our behaviors.
Self-awareness and/or Self Discovery is about knowing and
understanding:

your beliefs and principles

What you value and what is important to you

what motivates you

your own emotions

your thinking patterns

your tendencies to react to certain situations


what you want out of life

Who I am?
To get you thinking about your personal development plan and your
