Who am I? What am I working toward? What is my identity to attach itself to? Take time out to really understand and learn about yourself.

1. EVERY MAN MUST WORK AT KNOWING HIMSELF
While our experiences clearly helped shape us into the people we are today, this does not mean
that we necessarily know who we really are—what we are passionate about and what we want
from life.
Since we were tiny, we’ve developed beliefs and values, some good and some not so good, as a
result of our environment and the pressure from society to conform. Most people think that
achievements would make them feel better, which is not necessarily true.
Who am I? What am I working toward? What is my identity to attach itself to? Take time out to
really understand and learn about yourself.
Through struggles, identify and always work toward your goals. Consciously make an effort to
find out what it is YOU really want by taking the time to listen to yourself.
Here are some thoughts to consider that continue to help us in this journey and hopefully might
be helpful to you:
1. Realize that you do not have to justify your worth. The truth is that everyone is worthy of love,
respect, and kindness.
2. Take time to try different things to figure out what you enjoy.
3. Let go of expectations. Accept things for what they are, without feeling like your whole world
was crumbling before you.
4. Look after yourself. When you’re finding things tough and questioning who you are and
where you’re going, it’s important to take some time out to practice a bit of self-care.
5. Never overrated yourself. Under that you are unique and nobody is like you. You are special.
Be yourself and you’ll attract authentic friendships into your life. BE YOU.
6. Remember that your life is not set in stone. Life is full of opportunities. Any time spent
regretting missed ones allows less time to enjoy the opportunities that are presenting themselves
right now!
Knowing yourself allows you to explore and exploit the potential that you have.
