Who Are You?
Who Are You?
Steps to clarity from David Amerland.
Not a set and forget process but one that requires continual monitoring.
Our true self is made up of three key elements:
Direction – Where are you really going in your life? If your every decision is a response to your environment you have zero control and zero sense of where you’re heading. You will be unable to visualize yourself a year, two years, three years down the line because each day is full of unknowns that derail you.
Desires – What do you really want to do before you die? Living is not enough. We all get to live. But few of us manage to make that life count sufficiently to live a lasting mark.
Purpose – What do you feel is your purpose on this world? How do you work it out? How do you visualize it? What do you do to actually make it happen?
There are many smaller steps, choices and decisions that make up each of these key elements. Our daily choices are governed by the existence or absence of our sense of direction, for instance. Our desires color our attitude. Our purpose determines our actions.
Unless there is clarity inside your head about all this there will not be clarity in your actions, your life or your identity.

Find Out Who You Are
There's a gap between who we think we are and what we do and in that gap confusion and cognitive dissonance undermine our every value and destroy our every moral statement. In effect we fail to live up to who we believe we are which means that we spend time and resources shoring up a projected persona that is not the real us. Time to get out of that sandtrap.
