Part 2: Self Awareness: The Three Key Components to Successful Relationships
If we want to have to have deeper more meaninful relationships we need to start thinking more about our Self's and less about our relationship partner.
This goes against everything we know about relationships and is in direct contradiction to our theme here at Be the 3rd.
Yet, there are three key components of our communication process that never get the attention that they need, and they all require that we focus quite a bit of time thinking about these three aspects of ourselves.
Self-Awareness
Self-Control
Self-Esteem
Once we start to focus and understand these three components of self, not only will our relationships with each other deepen and strengthen but so will our relationship with God.
Today's podcast is part 2 in this series and focuses on self-awareness the foundation to the other Selfs (refer to S1Ep9 for part 1)
Self awareness is one of the five aspects to emotional intelligence. A high level of self awareness allows us to know and control our emotions. It gives us an insight into our own behaviors, styles, and sins. It also gives us confidence in our abiliities, talents, and our true calling from God.
We must know and understand ourselves wholly before we can know and understand others. When we find our true selves, through intervention from God, He will meet our needs. We then will look less toward others to meet them raising us to the top tier of Maslow's hierarchy of needs. This level of consciousness allows us to move our focus to our relationship partners and away from ourselves.

Bible Verses
Ephesians 4:22-24
You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; to be made new in attitude of your minds; and to put on the new self, created to bel like God in true righteousness and holiness.
2 Corinthians 5:17-19
Therefore, is anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come. The old has gone, the new is here. All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation, that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting people's sins against them.
Proverbs 21:2
A person may think their own ways are right, but the Lord weighs the heart.
Psalm 26:2
Test me Lord, and try me, examine my heart and my mind; for I have always been mindful of your unfailing love.
Psalm 139:23-24
Search me, God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. See if there is any offensive way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.
Romans 12:3
For by the grace given me I say to every one of you; Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the faith God has distributed to each of you.

When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness but will have the light of life."
