Self-awareness is vital to a physician's development. Understanding the impact of our internal subjective world on our attitudes and values and on the fantasies we have of reality is important to us as doctors. Some of the means of acquiring this self-knowledge include accurately perceiving the reflection of one's self in patients, understanding one's learning style, studying and enjoying the humanities, expressing one's self creatively, maintaining a sense of humour and examining one's reaction to experiences. When confronted by a person who is ill the physician must take action that is constructive and affirmative and not compromised by behaviour that originates in unexamined personal issues.
自我意识对医生的成长至关重要。了解我们内心主观世界对我们的态度、价值观以及我们对现实的幻想的影响，对我们医生来说很重要。获取这种自我认知的一些方法包括准确感知自己在患者身上的反映、了解自己的学习风格、学习并欣赏人文学科、创造性地表达自己、保持幽默感以及审视自己对各种经历的反应。当面对生病的人时，医生必须采取建设性的、积极肯定的行动，而不受源于未经审视的个人问题的行为的影响。
