Defining Your True Self
We discover our true self through reflection. Self-reflection is about connecting with who you really are, not the labels and roles you fulfill each day, but your true, authentic self. It is an invaluable process of reconnecting with your values and beliefs, and to identify and bring clarity to the consequences of the choices you are making, to identify inner roadblocks and fears, as well as desires, and it is one of the most important things you can do for personal growth.
Unfortunately, we live in a world where taking time, absolute uninterrupted free time, to simply think is considered by most to be a rare self-indulgence.
When was the last time you just stopped – not for a few minutes but a few hours – to consider your life as it is now? Do you have a clear vision of the future you are creating for yourself? More importantly, do you have a clear vision of the life you want to create for yourself?
