Knowing yourself better will allow us not only to be happier, but also to have more self-confidence, to know what goals or purposes we want to achieve in life and how to achieve them. Alziur has made this inner journey of self-knowledge and he tells you about his experience so that you too can get to know yourself better and be happy! 
Tips to get to know yourself better
- Do you discover yourself or rediscover yourself? It is the same, but it is true that over the years we lose our essence. As children we are not ashamed to say who we are, nor to tell our dreams (even if they are crazy), but as we get older everything changes: we become more serious, we lose our essence and the only goals we have in life are that marks society. You feel dragged by it and you don’t stop for a moment to think about what you really want or desire in the depths of your heart.
- We become obsessed with having a steady job, buying a flat (knowing that this means almost life-long mortgage with the bank), finding a partner and having children, saving for when we retire… Do you really want that? All this gives you stability and tranquility, but what about expressing who we are, living life and enjoying it.
- If we know ourselves better, we will be able to set clear objectives and design what those goals are that we want to pursue. Making the decision to break with everything is always scary, but it is necessary if what we are looking for is to be happy. “I worked in a bank as an economist. I had a good salary and a good environment with my colleagues, but I didn’t feel fulfilled. There was nothing that motivated me, so I decided to quit and go on a journey of self-discovery to find out what I wanted” Alziur confesses.
- How to make this change possible? How to know yourself better? Look back and think about what you liked to do as a child, what you felt good about, what you did naturally. “I was a very imaginative child and I had to do something that would allow me to let my mind fly again and little by little I’m getting it,” she explains. On the other hand, think about what you are good at and also stop for a few seconds to analyze why your friends or family are asking you for help, because there you will find the key to what you know how to do.
Don’t be afraid to get to know yourself better.
- At first it can scare you to start this process that you begin to get to know yourself better because you discover that those things that you thought (or should be better said that you wanted) to control or manage are not good at all for you, but at the same time you recover those others that They are part of your essence and that really make up your true personality.
- It’s a strange moment, like a kind of identity crisis because you break with everything that until now was established and programmed in your life. The pace of life we lead is marked by stress and haste, with hardly any time to think about ourselves, about what we really want.
- Do you want to prevent the years from passing and reach 70 years with the feeling that you are not really happy and regret having done some things and having parked others? So get up and start getting to know yourself better. There is always going back. Think about who you are, the virtues you have (and the defects) and accept yourself as you are. You will feel 100% liberated, you will gain confidence and your self-esteem will improve. And don’t forget that if you know yourself better, your relationship with yourself and with others will change, and it will do so for the better.
