Know Yourself
To know yourself is your first priority!
How can you realistically set goals, go about life and have successful relationships if you don’t know who you are or what you want? You really can’t. know yourself
Not knowing yourself will lead to confusion and wasting much time in hit and miss situations.
We tend to underestimate the importance of knowing ourselves. Many of us go through each day reacting to events and just getting by rather than making conscious choices based on who we are and what we want.
When we don’t know where we are headed it’s hard to set goals, get motivated and determine the best course of action. Before we can do any of these things we must establish who we are.
To know yourself:
Be aware of your strengths, weaknesses, likes and dislikes
Observe and be aware of your moods, reactions and responses to what is happening around you
Become aware of how these moods and emotions affect your state of mind
Examine how you interact with others
Observe how your environment affects you
Knowing and understanding yourself better, in turn, leads to better decision making, setting and reaching appropriate goals and ultimately living more a productive life.
There are many interesting personality tests and evaluations for self-discovery that can help you become more in tune to yourself and are also fun to do.
