Are You Authentic Or Acting?

Your score tells us you are a curious person who has spent some considerable time and energy working on your personal or professional development and it is paying off. Finding those gaps, you are not AWARE of, is being able to fearlessly look in the mirror and challenge your motivation and behaviour. Stepping up and calling yourself out for false purpose, is as important as patting yourself on the back, when you land it at being human. Your score says, ‘I am ready to commit.’ One gap we have discovered with emotionally aware people is the blur between when we aim to be authentic yet underneath we are unconsciously being self-serving. “When fuelled by an unquenched desire for approval, self-awareness can warp itself into self-involvement.” – Ron Carucci Now, before you stop reading and feel slighted, let us explain. We are all human beings which means we must fight consciously, against our nature at times. For this Skill Sheet we are focused on the nature of selfishness and our internal focus. The ‘what do I get out of this moment kind of drive,’ which can quietly steer us into conversations, actions and decisions, even when we are oblivious to this undercurrent.
