Lovely morning.Do you know yourself well? It is easy to think that you know yourself best, but the truth is that this is not always the case. For example, what you think is a flaw in you may actually be very attractive to someone else. I used to have a problem with my hair being too straight, but one of my friends used to long for straight hair like mine. On the contrary, I used to be fascinated by my friend’s slightly curly hair. When I realized this, I started to think that maybe I didn’t know myself as well as I thought I did.
Especially when I was young, I didn’t know myself very well and I didn’t have a lot of confidence in myself. But now I think that each one of us can change depending on the time we live in and where we are, and looking back I think that it’s OK to be unsure of who you are.
This is because getting to know oneself is a gradual process, and we all come to know ourselves at different times and feel confident about who we are.I think the only thing we can do to get to that point is to absorb as much as we can, rather than just stay there and do nothing or procrastinate what we need to do. Of course, socialising is part of that, but even if you’re not good at communicating with people, for example, you can learn on your own.
Nowadays you can watch you tube, read novels, watch the news, watch films and dramas, listen to music or even study something you are interested in by yourself. That way you can put all sorts of wonderful things in your drawer. The more you learn, the more you will be able to talk about it when you have to communicate with other people, which will help you to improve your relationships. It’s no exaggeration to say that you are what you learn.
The world we live in, the natural world, is a very chaotic place and it is always changing. So if we try to absorb things from this chaotic world, we will naturally absorb only what we need, and this may shape who we are. If there is something you are interested in, try to experience it and see how much you can learn from it. In this way, more and more ideas are formed in us through our experiences, and we may learn a little more about ourselves and become more confident in ourselves.
