Who do you know you are?

You can do so many different things. You can go to school, finish some trainings, courses. You can specialise yourself and gain the experience. You can pursue in different areas. Also you do not have to be, experienced in one direction. You can be great in something and very good at something else, or great as well. But it's important to know, that you know who you are.
When you know it, nobody will take it back from you. It gives strength and power, motivation and desire to create, to develop. This knowledge makes you a strong and stable tree whose sole purpose is to grow and flourish.

Thanks to that, you can focus on yourself and on being happy. Because we live in relation with who we are. So we do what we know and we do what we are good, better and better at. Thanks to the fact that you know who you are, this knowledge will gives you the full advantage that you ARE, here and now!

Question: Who am I? The answer is not easy, but it never was.

Is finishing school, education determines more or less the direction of us to define who we are? Yes, in a way. Because the school builds our personality, as we are a part of this big educational machine the same as the machine is a part of ourselves.

Is it what you have, the profession you are doing that defines who you are? If yes, are you willing to say that you are proud or satisfied with yourself being that someone? If you meant to answer to yourself. 

The work that we do, determines this fact and defines the scope of our duties and actions. Again, it narrows us down to the framework of our profession. But does it definitely determine who we are? Not completely. I know many people, who are working in a placed unrelated to their passions. It does not mean that they are unhappy. It does not meant that they should feel bad or worse. 

Actually people are not quite satisfied. People who are working where they want to or when they dreamed of becoming someone and they achieved it are even less. Of course, there are cases where everything is great. It motivates, it sets a fire for those who have doubts and fears.

My Grandfather always told me that work is a value. Yes, good work and well done work is a great value. It is possible to pursue a career we did not dream of? Is it possible to meet your ambitions in terms that are not related to our education? Of course!

Why? Because which job we have does not mean of who we are. Me, you, they thee are a series of complicated and not always clear paths, we are like a glacier mountain. Discovering only a part, visible on the surface for all. We are like a safes, that hide their secrets and treasures only for those who will be able to decode our cipher. Sometimes it is simpler, sometimes it is not.

But why who are we should be most important for ourselves?

Because then we can be authentic, we have a harmony with ourselves. It will allow us to be unreachable to the surrounding obstacles or issues.

It's how we see ourselves influences how others perceive us.
It's nothing new, thought older than me for sure. ;) 
But it is a true and the truth should be conveyed and we need to take care to keep it alive, not lost in the jumble of other matters.

The only restriction we have is ourselves, always. 
Everything is possible. We can be who we want to be. True, it it not always easy. But the work that we put into it, to become that someone, to climb on this mountain of our own possibilities is the value to strived for to make our lives meaningful. 

So? Do you know? Who do you know you are?
