“Knowing yourself is the beginning of all Wisdom” - Aristotle
This is the key to life. We spend all this time searching for our life purpose, our soul mates, happiness, success, power, respect and love. What I have learned is that all of these things lie within each one of us, it’s not external and the minute we realise this we have started to get to know ourselves. We each have a unique self and the key to happiness, success, power, respect and love all starts with us. How much happiness in our lives is a direct result of how much happiness we feel about ourselves, success, power, respect and love are the same. If we love ourselves then others love us too and so on and so on.
Look at your life just the way it is today, ask yourself these key questions;
Taking time to look at where you are today and where you want to go. It all starts with you. You decide how you are going to approach your day, making it a good day is easy if you decide it’s going to be.
We may not have control of the external things in life but we have complete control of how we react to each and every situation. We teach people how to treat us, and we do this by setting the example of how we treat ourselves. This is why knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom and all wisdom lies within.
