Let go of who you think you are, and become who you truly are

There comes a time in your life when you ask yourself who you are and who you want to be, or need to be. At some point we stop, and ask what is our purpose /goal in this life, on this planet.
Either we let go of this question without digging in to deep, or we decide we want to explore it.

The first step is to explore who you really are. Not the image you are attached to, but your truly authentic self. Be honest with yourself, sit and get to learn yourself;
Where some characteristics you have are rooting from, maybe it is childhood, family figure, culture around you.
 All these things have had part in your grown personality. There are also talents and skills you were born with, attributes that only define YOU.
After you learn who you are, you should learn to embrace it and see the good in it.
Of course also work and improve what you think needs to. 


From the things weaving your personality, surely you can find something you are good at, that is suitable for you and will make you enjoy doing; while also giving and helping others.
Big part of feeling a flow in your life is to have good relationships and a good impact on your surroundings, planet, people, ecology etc.
When you think about it, why not? When you are at your best, you are acting your best and also contributing better to your friends and people who need your attributes.

Sometimes people reach a point where they would like to start from the beginning, Stop the race and see what is more appropriate for them because it feels like they derailed from the path.

When I was at that point it helped me to watch motivation and spiritual guidance videos, to read self-help books and articles, to meditate with guidance, etc. So I have a nice video to recommend if you are on this road too and feeling the need to understand how to start, where to begin, how to find your life purpose/passion. Also 2 nice articles that share wisdom
