Not knowing oneself can lead to the urge of wanting to quit it all and run away…most chances you are not going to actually run away from your life & responsibilities but you will still feel that feeling & it fcking sucks.. so where does it come from? 👇🏻
1. Lack of direction and purpose: When you don't have a clear understanding of who you are, it can be challenging to determine your values, passions, and goals. Without this self-knowledge, you may feel lost, lacking direction, and struggle to find a sense of purpose in your life. This can lead to feelings of frustration, confusion, and a sense of unfulfillment.
2. Difficulty making decisions: Not knowing yourself can make decision-making a daunting task. Without a solid understanding of your preferences, strengths, and weaknesses, it becomes challenging to make choices that align with your authentic self. This can result in indecision, second-guessing, and a fear of making the wrong choices, ultimately leading to a sense of stagnation and missed opportunities.
3. Strained relationships: Self-awareness is crucial for healthy relationships. When you lack self-knowledge, it becomes difficult to communicate your needs, set boundaries, and understand your own emotions. This can lead to challenges in forming deep connections and may result in misunderstandings, conflicts, or a tendency to seek validation from others, compromising your sense of self.
So then what???
Start by journaling, mindfulness, therapy, or seeking guidance from mentors can help you delve deeper into understanding yourself.
Remember, self-discovery is a continuous process, and with time and effort, you can gain a clearer understanding of who you are and find greater fulfillment in life 🌿✨
