What is self-awareness?

I am haveing trouble finding a word to describe something that u yourself know is true without proving it to yourself, but can never proof it to another person. Any one know a word for this?
The closest word I can think of is "gnosis" which is a greek word that means 'knowledge". But it may not apply to what you are describing because it means knowledge in the sense that it is real to you, you have experienced it (as opposed to you have faith or beleive in it), so therefore if you accept this experience as proof, it wouldn't apply to my understanding of your question. But also, it comes close because gnosis means something you know is true, that you can not prove to another person, they have to experience it themselves.
