Self-awareness is your greatest and most valuable tool as a pre-PT, but the truth is, we don't use it that much. It's like, I know, I'm good at those classes or, I'm not great at standardized exams, we think that is self-awareness. Self-awareness is a lot deeper. Being self-aware is like being good at bowling. The concept of bowling seems simple, but the truth is, practicing it over and over is what allows you to become a better bowler. In your pre-PT journey, it is the same concept of you starting to practice to become more self-aware.
When we're not able to look inside and say, why am I feeling those things? Why am I stressed about that? Why am I anxious about that? Well, if we don't look inside, and assess those things, then what happens is we put ourselves in a position to self-sabotage by getting our way. There's a reason for everything you feel, whether it's stress or excitement. Do you understand why certain environments stress you out? Maybe it's the people you have around you. Maybe it's not having clarity in the next steps to take. For example, you're applying to 15 schools or 20 schools, are you self-aware to know that many school's applications? Or are you crossing your fingers and hoping to get into one school. We have to become self-aware, so as a pre-PT by asking yourself questions to be real with yourself. Then what I want you to start doing is think of what you can do every day to check yourself? What helps me is journaling, which is like having someone that you can talk to about these things. Being able to journal is being able to be transparent about what's going on in your head. You'll start realizing that a lot of your biggest fears are not out of reach. Some of your biggest fears that you feel are not accessible; well the truth is, a lot of them are not as crazy as you might think. They just might feel unreal to you. But when you start realizing other people have had lower GPAs and have gotten into PT school. Some students have been rejected two years in a row and on the third time, they have gotten into three DPT programs. Other students have taken the GRE four times and, then the last time they took the GRE the students crushed it. One main thing is though you can't get to that point if you're not self-aware.
What I want you to do is lock into becoming more self-aware and ask yourself, "why I'm thinking the things? Why am I feeling this way?" I want to make sure that every single one of you has that in your tool belt. Because once you do, you're untouchable as a pre-PT, and the doors will open for you in the future. We have to start looking inwardly because that's where everything comes from. It's something we have to continue practicing right now. It's something that you're going to have to start practicing if you're not already. Let's start becoming more self-aware.
