Well the number 1 rule about understanding yourself is that the world will not change for you, but you have to come to terms with how you relate to the world.
So in that way I guess I can say I do have a good understanding of myself, but that does not mean anyone else will ever have any real understand of me. Unless they truly care enough to invest and then accept what they find.
Accepting yourself is important, but just because you are not wrong, does that make you right. So just because I may have a true understanding of myself, does not mean that makes me right with the world. It just means I have made my peace with it, and only focus on effecting what I can effect and then not worrying about the rest.
Even with the vast understanding of knowledge, wisdom, insight and foresight, how do you determine if what you currently understand is true? You can't. It's simple a bunch of words that are familiar to us and give us a primitive understanding on the world we live in, you can never understand yourself as it's always in constant flux.
For me the understanding started when I put the effort towards understanding my motivations in the important areas of my life. There are stimuli all around us, and it’s easy to focus on that rather than personal betterment or understanding. Catching yourself behaving or acting or thinking in a way that does not help you accomplish your goals is a great place to start.
I understand my logical part. I understand my thoughts. I have trouble understanding my emotions/feelings. I am trying to get better at understanding them, but sometimes it feels like I have created a invisible barrier even towards myself.
I don't know if that's even possible. No matter how much we may try to see and understand ourselves, we still have our own lens to look through. I don't think that there is any way to be truly objective when considering oneself.
what even is "self"? if you try to grasp it, it becomes vague and all weird, cause you can't really put a finger on it and it also keeps somewhat changing over time too.
some say tha tthe self doesn't even exist. it's just a mind concept. not an actual thing.
Screw understanding Me as I’m boring. Penis, Sex, and Food is not so difficult, however, understanding God is mind stretching. Why and How I’m here from a Creator, God perspective is mind stretching…
I doubt if it is possible. If it is true then very small number of people. There is not much too understand. Life is journey enjoy the journey through rituals. Your biggest present is living in present. Not in past or future. Try not yoyoing between past and future.
Some people don’t see or will admit to their own flaws or faults. That would make it harder to know what to improve on to eventually be happy enough to know accept (know) yourself.
No. People don't really know what they will do and how they will carry it until they're in a situation, and it isn't possible to be in all possible situations.
