Are YOU conscious?

We are so busy with the many responsibilities and requirements of life that often we get sucked into the mundane place we call every day.

So how do we break the mould?
How do we get conscious?

Think back to school.... do you remember the kid that never had to study, never had to take notes, could coast through school and always get a perfect score on their projects, presentations or tests?
If we all could be so lucky, we would be Unconsciously Competent. Unconsciously Competents are lucky in many ways, however when it comes to challenges, the Unconsciously Competent will often not know how to react, feel angry or simply give up.

When we are Unconscious, we can’t be aware of what is around us, whether positive or negative. If we are unconscious we are unable to assess ourselves and make progressive steps towards positive change.
Think about your morning.

Have you ever encountered the driver that cuts you off in traffic and then yells at you?
If you are nodding your head while you read this, you have met the The Unconsciously Incompetent. The Unconciously Incompetent is the person who simply isn’t doing the tasks correctly, but they think they are doing really well. When we can’t look at ourselves objectively and assess situations we are unable to make progressive steps towards positive change.

Progress can be made with both the Unconciously Competents and the Incompetents if they are willing and open to change.

The only obstacle is when we see the solution and we CHOOSE not to address it.
When people are told a solution and they choose not to accept that solution, they are then Consciously Incompetent. The challenge here is that being Consciously Incompetent is not a skill impairment, but an attitude impairment.
Imagine the teenager that is told to put away their dirty socks but then they choose to throw them on the floor in front of you. They have made a conscious and knowing choice to directly go against you.

If you are ready to break the mould and step out of the everyday, awareness of one’s self is the key; in order to develop positive skills for success we all must GET ...
CONSCIOUSLY COMPETENT!

When you become concious, you are aware that you are doing something correctly, or incorrectly thus allowing you to quickly and proactively make appropriate changes. This personal examination is called needs analysis; with daily needs analysis you will be moving towards the best life possible full of success, excitement and authenticity.
