Being asked, "Who are you?" Most of them say their name is Laura and that they are 25 years old, married, and work in an office.
Information like age, name, job, and personal situation is only used to identify a person. Our true selves are inside of us.
Whether you have a good job, a bad job, more or less money, are married, single, or divorced doesn't say anything about who you are.
To get to know ourselves, we have to avoid things outside of us and focus on our own thoughts, feelings, and behaviours.
Who are we? If not for my job or things, I am responsible, kind, honest, and smart. But even what you think about yourself might not be true.
There are several reasons why you might be changing the truth. When describing themselves, some egomaniacs exaggerate how good they are.
If not, someone with low self-esteem will play up their flaws.
How are we supposed to know ourselves?, Can I believe what I think?Can I rely on what other people say about me?
Let go of ideas and titles to get to know yourself. Ask yourself bigger questions, like "What's most important to me?" How do I want to live? What values do I hold?
What we do, not what we say, makes us who we are. Think about a 41-year-old person who says they want to be independent but still lives with their parents.
What does this event tell us? People will do anything to get what they want. The easy way out person doesn't want to change anything and wants to stay in their safe zone.
Words can say a lot, but what we do, where we are, and what we've accomplished say even more.
Your deeds and reactions show more about who you are than your thoughts and feelings.
What makes you mad and upset? What you think are flaws in other people makes you who you are. I'll figure out who you are if you tell me what's bugging you.
Bad things can show how good a person is. Think about two friends who have always told each other everything, even their darkest secrets.
After a fight, they are no longer friends. How they handle this situation will show how honest they are. They're honest and have values if they don't hurt each other or use each other's secrets, even when they're mad at each other.
If someone is angry and tries to hurt someone behind their back to make them look bad and enjoy their pain, they are being cruel and not having any morals.
We usually don't see the bad parts of other people until there is a fight or stress.
We're all fine when things are going well, but when things go badly, you'll really know someone.
