‘Wake up to yourself Anthony’
It’s a phrase often repeated to me by my parents as a little boy. Teachers also reminded me that it was something I needed to do. I don’t think I was actually an abnormally naughty little boy. A bit of a day dreamer at times maybe.
It’s a strange phrase when you think about it. ‘Wake up to yourself’ implies that we are asleep to ourselves and that we are not conscious of ourselves.
Self-awareness or self-discovery is always empowering even if we don’t like what we are discovering.
