DISCOVERING WHO YOU ARE & WHAT YOU WANT

Discovering who we truly are as people can actually take a very long time, especially as it’s not a simple concept. We weren’t just one thing. We are thousands of different things that make us up as people. And we also want thousands of different things.

I’m afraid there is not a simple quiz you can take to find out who you are and what you want. It can only come with time and learning about yourself, reflecting, deciding, observing and so forth.

Humans are not simple, we are widely complex and each one of us is slightly different which is why there is correct blueprint for finding out who you are exactly as it is something only you can find out for yourself.

Part of discovering who you are will just come to you throughout life but there are things we can do to reflect and try to speed up the process of learning about ourselves and what we want from life.

Sit down with yourself.

Grab a notebook or use your phone, iPad, laptop – although I think physically writing is best. Write down the characteristics you think you have, the qualities, your values and beliefs, your likes and dislikes, your faults, your strengths, your dreams, your goals, your standards, your ideal partner, what type of house you want if you even want a house, marriage or no marriage, kids, pets, location of where you want to live or the type of climate. The list goes on.

Now this doesn’t have to be done all at once, write some things down and come back to it once a week and add some more – you will probably never stop adding things as we are constantly evolving and growing. However, it will be incredibly helpful to see what you come up with about yourself and to find out what you truly enjoy, hate, love, want and need etc. This will help you to see discover who you are and what you want. Which will in turn help you see what you need to work on, what you’re doing well at and what steps you need to take to live the life of your dreams.
