Bio

I am Wallis and would be glad to hear from old and new friends.

If we never talked before please do remember to message me about your topic, otherwise our chat probably won't go effectively.

If we had a chat before please also message me about whether you want to continue the previous topic or something new coming up.

When members want to talk about topic I have little experience in, it is always suggested to use this link to find listeners with direct lived experience: https://www.7cups.com/BrowseListeners/. Sorry for not being so knowledgeable.

First language: Chinese, Second language: English (proficient in academic level)

I would love to talk to members who speaks Chinese and appreciate the opportunity to talk to Chinese speakers since it is rare to encounter one on Cups.

...See more Self-Awareness is a skill that I need to practice all my life. In the growth path, it says: Self-awareness also entails recognizing both strengths and weaknesses, acknowledging past mistakes, and celebrating achievements, leading to a realistic self-image that forms the basis for healthy self-esteem and self-acceptance.   I believe that we all have a self-image inside, which shapes our self-esteem along with many other things. A false self-image can lead to a false idea of what we should do or should not do. I was always lucky to have someone who was close to me to remind me when I was mislead by any false self-image. To have a realistic self-image, I reflect a lot to have a right understanding of myself. I gradually starts to accept my weakness and find ways to eliminate any negative consequences of them. For example, when I found myself too anxious and impatient in a certain circumstance, I would step outside for a while till I calm down.   I would like to encourage you to discuss the question below: Try to describe your self-image before and after you practice self-awareness. Can you identify any new characteristics of your realistic self-image now? I welcome you to reply this post and share your findings!

...See more Openness and Learning Mindset is an important skill, especially for listeners. We must learn to be open ourselves first, then it can be possible for us to have an open and learning mindset to others. In the growth path, it says: A Learning Mindset involves adopting a stance of continuous self-improvement and personal growth. It means recognizing that our inner landscape is not static but can evolve, change, and improve over time. Embracing a learning mindset encourages us to seek knowledge, face challenges, and adapt to life's ever-changing circumstances. It is important to have a learning mindset, so we can keep improve ourselves. In my listening journey, I found the learning mindset helpful in that it can help create a space without judgement between me and the members. As a volunteer listener, I lack knowledge in many aspects of mental health. Usually I would acknowledge this to the members when they wanted to talk about an unfamiliar topic, if the member acknowledged this and still wanted to talk, I would continue the chat and try to learn from the member. To practice this skill, we can first try on ourselves, and then apply this skill to our listening experience.  I would like to encourage you to discussion the question below:  After you practice openness and learning mindset, can you observe any changes in the way you treat yourself and others?  I welcome you to reply this post and share your findings!
