Four Levels of Self-awareness and
Self-empowerment
Bottom line or Life issues
If your grown-up self is not working every day on your bottom line or life
issues then your inner child will be busy every day trying to fix them for you.
That's hard work for a kid.
Everyone needs to learn about her or his bottom line or life issues and to
distinguish these from what may seem important but which turn out to be only
symptoms pointing to the real issues.
Your most powerful "life issues" are related to the problems that worry you
most, but they may also be involved in some of your best solutions. Most people
need to work on eight to ten basic life issues. What are they? Go to
Bottom Line Issues
Boundaries are not “Rules” or “Walls” -
Boundaries are one of the most important of all the Life Skills. They are
essential if you are to protect your inner child, yet if you grew up in a family
environment where there were few if any boundaries, it is more than likely that
you won't really know what these things are.
Using boundaries is a natural and normal activity. Developing good boundaries is
also part of growing your own self-awareness and self empowerment. It's always
harder to try something new if we feel we have no idea of how to do it. It's
even harder if we tried to do it as a child and failed, even though the reason
it didn't work might not have been our fault.
Now as a grown up you have the ability to develop really good boundaries and use
them to protect yourself and your Inner child.

A fable about the Characters in your
inner Village and How Awareness Grows -
This is a story about a boy and a girl who live in a
small village. Even though they were both in their late teens they had never
met. But there were some things they had in common.
For a start the each of them kept noticing how people in their
village found it hard to deal with life and its day-to-day
problems.
What's this got to do with you and me and
our self-awareness? - As this fable explains it's often like this with
aspects of our daily lives when they are handled by our "inner protector
characters". As the boy and the girl begin climbing up Awareness Hill behind the
village so much starts to become clear for the first time.

Rules for the School of Life
1. You are enrolled in a full-time informal school called Life.
Each day you will have the opportunity to learn lessons. You may like the
lessons or think your assignments are stupid and irrelevant but each one has a
purpose that is special for you.
2.
An assignment will be repeated until you have learned that lesson. Do
you find yourself experiencing the same (unpleasant) event again and
again? One of your current learning projects is to discover whatever you need to
do so it either stops happening or no longer affects you . There are another 9
