Easy Guide to Starting Self Development | All You Need
Good morning!
Google told me to do random shit like eat good, sleep good, drink water, read, take up a new hobby and to enrol in courses.
Basically just the different areas of health; social, physical, mental, spiritual.
YouTube videos on this seem okay, but I’m gonna purport my opinion anyway.
Start with a general direction.
Imagine this scenario: You’re at a train station, and you need to enter via stairs upwards or by an elevator.
You’re already heading towards the stairs, while others are already halfway turned off towards the elevator.
You continue towards the stairs and end up beating the people who were ahead of you, AND who took the seemingly better elevator.
They took the obvious path, and yet you still won.
But what about this: You hesitate as you approach the stairs, and turn towards the elevator for a couple seconds, as you think it might be quicker.
But you change your mind and turn back to the stairs.
You’ve lost momentum.
You’re the kind of person who gets distracted from their path.
As you arrive up the stairs, the elevator people beat you.
A treacherous event, which is destined to happen again.
Choose where you’re going, and go there.
COMMIT.
How do you figure out the general direction?
If you’ve watched me before, and don’t want to hear this although it would probably ossify it in your mind even more, skip to (*this time).
BECOME your Destined Identity.
Fill out the 10 Questions to Find Your Purpose, to uncover, as much as you know based on your experiences so far, what you want and why you want it.
And trust me, you want something, even if it might change in the future.
By the time you’ve finished the 10 Questions, you’ll have addressed the next crucial steps of discovering what you value, WHO you value, and then a general idea of what to do to BECOME your Destined Identity.
Some people say that you’ve gotta know where your weaknesses are, and where your strengths are.
I don’t think that it really matters what your strengths are to be honest, but your weaknesses will be made clear in Q6.
You can also just observe how far you are from embodying certain traits within your Destined Identity.
The main thing that I’ve kept in mind in order to move forward, or at least doing what seemed right, no matter what
How’re you supposed to know where the best place is to start, if the whole point of you DEVELOPING your SELF, is that you don’t know much stuff.
And honestly, how is anyone ELSE gonna tell you where the “best” place is to start, if they themselves are growing and understanding things.
Literally like me, and you, talking right now.
I’m just telling you that you’ve gotta find general direction and identity based on you, because I can’t really say anything else.
You’ve just gotta do what feels right.
But beyond that, I can give you a mindset to have that might starting off on your path easier.
And that is understanding that nothing is good or bad, that not you nor anybody else has any idea what’s going on and that it’s kinda funny how much overthinking can make the world seem scary, when really it’s just stupid.
Yeah.
I laugh at everything.
So to “start” your journey along your Peaky Path, you’ve got to both instil the right psychological understandings, and then to take action by just trying stuff.
You could probably start talking to people more curiously, as this is something that’s necessary in order to learn stuff.
And you’ll meet people destined to be on your Peaky Path, but I don’t know who they’ll be or what they’ll teach you.
But they’ll be someone, and it’ll be something.
That’s it!
So yeh, general direction starting with the 10 Questions to Find Your Purpose.
Identity.
Make your weaknesses clear, and get an idea of where to go.
Understand Cluelessness.
And talk to people.
Good luck!
