How to Know Thyself

A "journey of self-discovery" refers to a travel, pilgrimage, or series of events whereby a person attempts to determine how they feel, personally, about spiritual issues or priorities, rather than following the opinions of family, friends, neighborhood or peer pressure. Self discovery should be an important goal for everyone. Finding yourself, who you are and what you want to be, it is the most important adventure a person can have in their life.
But it has been seen many times that people often spend their entire lives not knowing who they are and what they want to be. They just blindly follow the rules. The way to discovering yourself involves a lot of breaking up your life into different layers and removing those layers that do not serve any purpose. Once you know that your layers consist of only those memories that reflect who you truly are, you can start the crucial act of building up new layers that are based on what you learned from the previous experience.
These new layers enable a person to recognize their true potential while allowing us to be open to new experiences and lessons.
