The Really Important Thing About Knowing Who You Are

Recently someone who knows me well told me this – “You know who you are, so you know who you’re not.”

It’s like a truth bomb hit me and my mind exploded a little bit.

It sounds so simple and duh, right? But it’s a truth that’s taken me a long time to realize for myself.

If we don’t know who we are, we strive and strive and strive to be who we think we should be, or who the world thinks we should be, or we let our external circumstances define us.

We don’t know who we are so we say yes too much. We lead a life that doesn’t allow us to live into our strengths.
