Self knowledge is at the point where wisdom meets success.
In order to truly succeed in life - you must know yourself.
In order for your relationships to thrive - you must know yourself.
In order to achieve ALL things that you want for you and for your loved ones - you must know Yourself!
Before you can get anywhere worth going in this world, you have to know other people (how they feel, what makes them feel that way, what they want....). It matters not if you're a teacher, entrepreneur, salesman, chef, doctor, lawyer or writer. You'll simply never be of use to anyone unless you know them. And, as the saying goes, you'll never know others until you know yourself.
Self knowledge is at the point where wisdom meets happiness.
Take a close, careful, conscientious look at yourself. Ask the following questions:
1. What are my strengths?
2. What are my weaknesses?
3. Where AM I right now in my life?
4. Where would I LIKE to be?
5. How can I use the answers for question #1 to propel me from #3 to #4?
6. How will the weaknesses from #2 delay the trip? Is there a chance they could cancel the voyage alltogether?? Weaknesses wreak havoc with good intentions and well-laid-out plans. Fortunately, they don't have to win. Weaknesses are strengths waiting to happen; you just have to "work them out".
If you give the above 6 a bit of thought and consideration, you'll have a better understanding of the person at the helms of your life. You'll know where it is you want to be and what it will take to get there. You'll soon be on your way, using your strengths to muscle around any weaknesses and obstacles in your way.
Phone success and let it know when to expect you!
