How to Understand Yourself Better


Observe and understand the people that surround you.
Observe the 5 people you hang out with the most. In them you’ll find exactly how you believe yourself to be at any given moment.
“Peoples judgments are more about themselves than they are about you.”
The same is true the other way around.
If you judge the people around you in certain ways, those certain ways will reveal your level of thinking. Negativity indicates that you have thoughts that aren’t in alignment with who you truly are. Observing and understanding how you see the people around you will reveal your current habitual thoughts and beliefs. Understanding how you think, and why you believe what you believe, will help you understand yourself better as well.

Listen for Hidden Wisdom From other People
People see the world in the manner that they are ready to see it. Sometimes you can hear something from one person, but it won’t click until you hear it from a different person.
Why?
Because your beliefs form the channels of which reality can flow to you. Insight about the self will sometimes come from other people. With practice you’ll be able to recognize what’s true to you. Apparently, conversation isn’t as coincidental as it seems.

Do Something Challenging
You know exactly what you think of yourself when challenges arise. Challenges provide opportunities for you to re-calibrate your thinking. You always receive challenges that you have the ability to win. Life is a mirror, and challenges are opportunities to learn more about whom you are and what you can be.

Write in a Weekly Journal
Thought is powerful. Writing in a journal will reveal to you exactly where you focus that power. A journal helps you to better understand yourself with reflection. Every time you learn something new and then reread your journals, you learn how to change reality with your thoughts.

Bonus Tip: Write your journal so that the events, thoughts, and beliefs, read the way you would like them to be.
Example: You write what really happened in your day, and rewrite it transformed into what you’d like for it to happen.
The reason for doing this is to focus the mind on the reality that you would like to experience.
When it comes to the subject of thought: “Like attracts like.”

Hang Out With Positive People
“Birds of a feather flock together.”
Hang out with positive people and you will understand more of your positive traits. You will soon realize how reality responds to thoughts and actions, and you’ll feel positive emotions. Positive emotions are indications that you’re aligned with your true nature.
What better way to understand yourself better then to be aligned with your true nature?
