This is Part II of a two part blog.

So the way to come to know truly who you are is to take the time to sit and simply “be” with your self on a regular consistent basis. Then you can truly come to know your self from the inside out. Then you can take actions in the world that are consistent and harmonious with who you really are rather than with what you think you should be or do. Then as you come to know your self in this way, you will know how others are, too.

Too often most of us choose what we do in our lives based on what we think others think is best for us, but somehow we never get in touch with what we feel and know on a very deep level is who we really are and is really best for us. So, we do things in our lives in an unconscious way and we end up living a very unaware, unfulfilled life.

We mistake “doing” for “being” and never find fulfillment, happiness or purpose. Instead all we find is more to “do.” We do get good at what we do, but we don’t get good at who we “be.”

We run around doing what we think we “should” be doing rather than what we know deep inside we want to do. We keep running around doing what we “should.” In other words we keep “shoulding” all over ourselves, but we never get around “being” ourselves or “being” true to ourselves.

So, what would you prefer: to “do” what you “should” with your life or “be” who you truly are? You get to choose.
