Self﹣awareness means having a good understanding of our own character.If you're self﹣aware，you may know that you love playing an instrument because you do well in it，and music makes you happy，or that you like watching TV better on your own because it helps you relax.
Knowing what you like and dislike，what you are good or bad at allows you to make better decisions about friendships，schoolwork and build confidence.The WHO （World Health Organization）says self﹣awareness is one of ten important life skills that help young people live healthier and happier lives.Being self﹣aware doesn't mean only thinking of yourself.By understanding your own feelings，you will better understand other people too.
How do you learn to be self﹣aware？It is a good way to ask questions.Ask yourself questions that start with"What"instead of"Why".For example，if you don't understand why you keep arguing with a friend，ask yourself what you disagree on instead of why you're arguing.
Learning to be more self﹣aware is a skill.You learn it as you grow.So be bold and try out new things，like playing a new sport or listening to different kinds of music.Don't be afraid to dislike something—discovering what you don't like is a key part of learning more about yourself.
