I have learned that it is possible to become more self-aware by observing more and more how our thoughts and actions affect the people around us.
It starts with observing the actions of others. We don’t have to become so knowledgeable that we can do whatever we want. We can just stop acting like an asshole.

“Self-awareness” is something that seems to be a big part of the problem of the internet. Many of us don’t seem to “get it”, like the fact that we’re “obsessed” with our own stuff and that we see it as “shiny” and “important” and “important to be noticed by others”, or like how we act all of the time, or like how we act only when we’re alone.
Just like when I am watching my kids play with their toys, I don’t want to know what their latest favorite toy is. I want to play with it but I dont want to have to constantly wonder, and I don’t want to have to constantly be afraid that someone might find out that I want to play with it.
There are times when we have a tendency to feel like we have to take a particular stance on someone or something. We do this by making a point about ourselves, even when the other person is not aware of it. In this case, we are afraid that if we aren’t aware of our own obsessions, we will be caught off guard when people find out about them. So we act like they are the problem…and then the person we are really afraid of becomes the problem.
Susan Matus is a bit of a puzzle if you haven’t seen her game (and that’s why I like her work). It’s a game about a girl who has a knack for solving puzzles at a very young age, but she’s not the sort of person who will do anything to hurt herself — yet again. She has a tendency to go through life feeling like she’s never doing anything right, no matter how many times she tries.
Its a bit like how I feel about my sister because we never talk about the shit we have, but we all do some horrible shit to ourselves, and we can’t really deal with the fact that we have the same tendencies.
Susan is a very talented girl. She has been an avid gamer since she was five years old. When she is in school she is always playing video games, and has been known to play a game for over an hour without moving. She is also a writer. In an interview with The Guardian she said that she was constantly frustrated by the fact that she didn’t have a huge following at school. “I was always told I had a lot of potential,” she said.
I disagree. Susan isnt a writer. She is a gamer.
