    Don't ever feel that you fail, just by trying to understand yourself you are making a big improvement in you. 97% of humans don't know what is that.

    That is the begin of something that never ends.
    Understanding oneself does not means that you must be perfect. But understanding
    that we all do make mistakes. Mistakes make us what we are. Mistakes builds up our experience in life, Mistakes mature our soul. Mistakes are some kind of warnings that allow us to be a better human through reflection.

    Yes pretty much, but I'm an older guy and I've seen a lot in life and I've learned to view it from outside the box. I think younger people would have a very hard time understanding themselves as they go through the immortality phase and mature into adults just like we all do.

    A person has to understand himself / herself first so that he / she could understand others. Self understanding is the secret to success :)

    Every thing is connected in a fantastic manner. It's almost impossible to know what you want if you don't know who you are. Don't worry if you don't know what you want; that comes itself once you start understanding you.

    It is very sad to hear that. Understanding ourself is the simplest thing in the world, because is that simple, it is hard to get to that point for most humans.
    Rules are made to keep control, but is harder to be in control if you don't understand why and what is the reason of things.
    When you have a situation in life, most of the time we can't understand why things happen, because we focus in the problem or situation and we don't realize that for every single action there is a reaction. To understand things you have to analyze until you get to the seed.

    A friend of mine(hi is a blind person since he was 13 years old, now is 78 "Jose Torres") told me once "When you are listening a person to speak, try to understand what is not said". I understood by this expression is that you have to look in any situation what is not seen, look for what is not visible and you will discover more.

    I hope this can help you in some way.:eek:
    Sincerely,
    Mike30

    I am a little nervous, and sometimes do not know what to do, it may not be aware of their own,
    Ah people, it is necessary to know your own
