SELF DISCOVERY (Engr Haseeb Ahsan)

SELF DISCOVERY

If you are worried about your future and confused what to do or which direction you should go to reach your destiny. If you are not capable to figure out your ambitions. If random thoughts with unfulfilled dreams always surrounds you. This blog will help you to cope up with all these uncertainties.

Self-discovery is the process of learning more about yourself. It helps you to figure out who you are. Self-discovery works as therapy to evaluate your strengths and weaknesses.

Those people are admirable who conquer themselves instead to conquer their enemy.

Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom, “ARSITOTLE”.

People attend different workshops and training institute for self-discovery. They rely on others and don’t believe in their own abilities and will power. They always look for other’s help and even let others to decide their future. They let others to write down the story of their life.

It doesn’t mean that you should not attend institutions or not consult with others about your problems and quires. Read out the books, attend seminars and seek advises from others but don’t be so dependent that you lose your inner values and strength. 

Self-believe is your inner strength. Self-discovery starts from self believe. Once you take responsibility of your failures then no one can stop you from getting what you have wished.

“Sometimes you have to kind of die inside in order to rise from your own ashes and believe in yourself and love yourself to become a new person says “Gerard way”.

Following points will lead you toward self-esteem.

1.   ASK YOURSELF WHO AM I

It is simple but very effective to ask few questions to yourself,

Who are you? What brings you joy? What are the things you afraid of? These are simple question but you can’t grow in your life until you find answer to all these questions.

2.   LOOK AT YOUR CHILDHOOD

As children, we are naturally in tune with what we like. In childhood we were free from social and financial boundaries and didn’t have any kind of limitation in our thoughts. We were free from comparisons. So keenly observe what had made you feel good in your childhood.

3.   TAKE PERSONALITY TEST

4.   PRACTICE SELF-CARE

Take some time for yourself. Do things you enjoy whether that is a playing any sport or a long drive. Self-care looks different for everyone.

  

5.   WHAT YOU ENJOY MOST

Pay attention to the things you don't like because those emotions are also useful in finding your passion. If your heart isn't in something, let it go.

6.   SURROUND YOURSELF WITH SAME MINDSET PEOPLE

The journey of self-discovery is not a solo one, although it may feel like that at times. If you are surrounded with people who don’t have your best interests at heart, then you will not be able to grow into the best possible version of yourself. Eliminate those people from your life, and surround yourself with people who allow you to grow.
