This is the second episode in our series where we break down the three levels of self-awareness. We dive into how and why we know something, why we know it, and what we know that we don’t. We also discuss how certain skills and habits can help us to become more aware of the world around us.
This episode is very heavy in social skills. We talk about how the three levels of self-awareness are all about building the habits of people who are more aware of themselves. For example, the first level, awareness, starts by being able to recognize your own actions. You start to see that everyone around you is actually doing what they are doing, and you understand that you are doing exactly what you are doing. The next step, knowing, involves learning to notice.
Backsliding is an internal process. Most people find out about their backsliding when they’ve done something wrong, when they see it reflected in their behavior. You can use your awareness to help you recognize when you’ve fallen into this trap, but you also need to be aware that backsliding might be something you’re doing so that you don’t fall into it in the first place.
The backsliding trap is one of the worst things you can fall into, especially if youve been doing it long enough to have the habit of it. You should be so aware that you’re not doing it just to feel good, but to avoid falling into it in the first place. You need to be careful, but it’s hard to avoid backsliding when youve been in this loop too long.
This is the exact same issue I have with my own backsliding. Ive been going through a cycle of backsliding for years, and I just wanted to get out of it so I could get back to a positive state. But no matter what I did, I kept slipping back into it, and it took me a long time to get to a state where I could stop. In the end, I came to a realization that I had to do something about my backsliding.
The main reason why I don’t have backsliding in my backsliding is because I have no idea what it is. When I go out into the world, I’m so scared I can’t even see the sky! What if that’s your only escape? I don’t know if you’ve ever seen people in a backsliding, but I’ve always seen people floating around.
After spending a whole week in the backsliding of a party island, I got the feeling that I was going to die. I thought that was a very cool time to go back to it, and I felt like I should give it a shot, but I didn’t. I decided to go in, and see if I could find the girl I was trying to protect. She is a lovely girl and I thought she would be nice enough to let me help her out.
The last thing I did was to have a good time and make my friends and family laugh.
After spending two weeks on the Party Island of Blackreef, I began to find that I was not the only one who got a bit bored. Not only did I have a date, but also a bunch of people I wanted to fuck, plus a little bit of a buzz about my new hobby. I decided to give myself a little head trip and go out for a drink. I decided to go to a pub, but I ended up being the only customer.
I was curious what it would feel like to meet new people and have an intense conversation with someone I just met. So I went to the bar, sat down, and waited for a conversation. A couple minutes later I noticed that it wasn’t one person I was expecting.
