Lost ? Find Yourself Again
No matter how hard we try, sometimes we just end up losing ourselves, in a relationship, chasing a goal, or abiding by others expectations...
Finding yourself - what does it mean?
I've been trying to figure that out for years. Like what does it REALLY mean. To be honest, you don't need to go around the whole globe to find yourself, even if Julia Roberts made it in Eat Pray Love. I mean yeah you could find yourself that way too, but there's no need for that.
When you find yourself and make peace with yourself, you can be yourself, be a better person and focus more in things you love. You also will know the answers for questions like:
how you react to different things, what are your good and bad sides, how you manage with different feelings and my favorite part; how you can improve in all of these areas.
Step 1...
The realization: Welcome to the Journey to “ me”
Ask yourself what were your hobbies before this happened
Make a list about all these things:
- Things you LOVE to do and make you happy
- Things that make you feel really bad or sad
- Things you hate to do but do anyways, because someone is expecting it
- Things you would love to do but something is stopping you (and what/who is stopping you)
- Things you're afraid of
Ask lots of questions from yourself. It will help you to know yourself better.
Step Two:
Start writing down how you react to different situations
1. Write a situation. 2. Tell what happened. 3. Describe how it made you feel. 4. Write what you did and why. 5. Did you do the right thing? 6. If not, what should've you done?
