Self-observation
Self-observation is diverting your attention inward.
It's the process of watching yourself for patterns, seeking to understand what you do and why you do it. Part automatic sub-process of self-monitoring, part intentional effort to reflect and Introspection.
Self-observation is a muscle, it gets stronger when it is used. It's also a learnable skill.
Self-observation is critical for growth, behavior change, self-management, and happiness.
