In this generation of exploring new places, different kind of food, street food, the woods, exciting parties, new movies, people often tend to forget exploring themselves. My brother once told me, obviously must've heard it himself but he wanted me to know, that before spending time with anyone at any place, you get to spend the most time with your own self, so make yourself interesting. I truly believe in that fact. See what you like, what you actually think, explore your perspective, notice of what really is the difference between your opinion and other's or do you just agree to fit in. Ask yourself if you really want to be right all the time. These little questions really make a difference, if you want to be like someone or if you want to be you. There can not be anything in this world that can give you more happiness than finding yourself. This can actually be done in a few steps for example, Make sense of your past, ask yourself of why you did that and who did you do that for. If we have has painful early experiences, we can see through them as to how we defend ourselves and how we look at ourselves. For example, having harsh parents can change our outlook of the surrounding, the way we behave and many more things. So get to know more about why is your behavior actually like that, resolve your issues and get comfortable with your past and finally let it go. Past is called past for a reason. Then see what you are really looking for in your life. Seek meaning, what you really want from your life. Ask yourself what set of values do you really possess, what really matters to you, is it your loved ones or is it wealth or is it your health. After that, see what are you really good at. I believe every person has a super power. Look out for your super power, notice of what you are really good at, Is it writing, or is it reading people, or is it science. It can be anything. One more important and distinct feature about knowing yourself is friendship. Knowing the true value of friendship and relationships, how much do you respect it and what you really seek out of it. What really is your definition of friendship.   http://www.psychalive.org/finding-yourself/
