How to discover yourself and why it is important?

It's been quite a long that I didn't write any blog post may be because I write only when I like to share my deepest observation and thoughts about real life and if I don't feel anything truly from the heart , I don't write at all.

So today I want to share my thoughts about why it is important to know about your inner self.Most of us believe that we are what, others think of us. So even if we are not, we gradually become a person what people want us to be because we let their thoughts rule our minds. It happens when our will power is less and we are less aware of our weaknesses and strengths.

Let me give you an example suppose a child goes to a dance class to learn dance for the first time but lacks behind other students and even the teacher says "you can't dance" it would hamper confidence of that child. Then the child may starts thinking that may be the tutor is right . Here his/her thinking would be over power by teacher's thinking. Even if the child wants to learn now he/she won't. It is just an example of how our personality gets affected by other people's opinion.

We can't change other's opinion but we can change ourselves. We just need to find our real selves . 

It is not easy to find who you truly are, what you truly wants because we generally gets distracted by outside world especially when you are extrovert as you are always among people and between their thoughts and attention. That you don't feel need to know who you actually are. But here comes the problem most extrovert don't enjoy their own company when they are alone because basically these people forget their problems when they are among others so when they are alone it is some what tough for them.

This problem is not only specific among extroverts only, introverts also don't introspect when it comes to properly solving their own problem because they over think but don't think critically and the way they should. 

So question is how can we know what we want or who we are?

The answer is not simple. But  there are various ways where you can know about your inner self like 

Knowing about the stuff you like to read,

Think about the things you would like to do forever.
Try to remember those days when you felt the happiest without any tension and obligation. 

When did last time you felt great about yourself ?

When did last time you had good laugh? 

When did last time you felt accomplished ?

All these memories, events and feelings will lead you to the path where you ought to be.

It is not one day process to know who you are instead it is gradual and life long process but you should start it as soon as possible. As we all are here for limited period of time.

To summarize it I just want to say if you don't feel happy about ur life,then either change yourself or change the situation :)
