Discover your true self:
“To grow yourself, you must know yourself”
John C. Maxwell
Well, that’s true.
For you, self-awareness is like the sun for the plant. The sun guides the plant and self-awareness guides you. You cannot improve unless you get to know your character, feelings, weaknesses, strengths, expectations, or even dreams.
First, you have to know yourself inside out; then, based on that information, you can start planning for your future. In other words, you cannot succeed if you don’t know what you are like, what you want, or what kinds of skills you have. Do you agree?
But how can we discover our true selves? My suggestion for you is to start with these steps:
Be honest with yourself:
Honesty is the key here; you don’t want to fool yourself. So admit to who you are and not who you want to be.
Determine your values:
What is important to you? If you know your values you can keep moving, if not you will easily be confused and therefore, stuck.
Discover your personality:
Keep it in mind, we are all different; it’s ok not to be like others, you are perfect just the way you are. Try to know your personality, what makes you happy, sad, angry, or joyful? Recognize your behavioral patterns. Try to accept and love yourself.
Picture your future:
Close your eyes and picture your future; what is it like? Where are you? Who are you with? what do you have? And so on. If you have a clear picture, then you can start drawing it for real.
Specify your weaknesses/ strengths/ interests:
Life would be much easier if you know what you enjoy/ hate doing and what you are good or bad in.
Ask for feedback:
Sometimes it’s helpful to see yourself in someone else’s eyes. Find a true friend, someone you trust and know that would never lie to you; then ask him what he thinks of you. Of course, you should not just determine who you are based on what one person says, but sometimes others can tell you things that you know but you don’t like to admit.
For a better result, you can use a paper and write down every single thing that you know about yourself.
