How do you raise your awareness of the internal self in a way that translates into high functionality day to day within your career?

These questions can act as a continual assessment of how and when any shifts have occurred. If you date your answers, you will have a record and timeline of your growth or shifts in your behavior.

- Are you sleeping more or less than usual?
- Are you eating more or less than normal?
- Are you able to keep to your everyday schedule or is it chaotic?
- Have you been leaving mail unopened? Are bills unpaid or late?
- Is everything around you scattered or unorganized, especially if you are normally organized? Conversely, have you become overly organized and obsessive about how you want things done?
- Are you spending too much time on the internet?
- Are you unable to concentrate, or are you hyper-focused?
- Are you reclusive, or do you fear being alone?
- Are you forgetful, or are you obsessive about time?
- Are you engaging in excessive behavior related to shopping, alcohol, sex, and food?
