To Understand Yourself Requires Patience. Do You Have It?

It takes time to really understand something, including you. We are quick to judge ourselves. We are good at pointing out what we are not good at. We love talking about our mistakes. We like to associate ourselves with people who think and act like us. Is that the way forward? Is that how to grow in life? Maybe, maybe not.

To know who you really are, you must be patient with yourself. You must tolerate yourself. You must be comfortable with both your mistakes and your ugly past. Yes, you must be comfortable with them. You can’t erase them just like that. They are part of your life. Instead of trying to erase your past, which is impossible, why not try to understand it. Why? When you understand your past, you can prepare for your present and your future.

“Be patient with yourself. You are growing stronger every day. The weight of the world will become lighter… and you will begin to shine brighter. Don’t give up.”

Robert Tew

No one can lead you to yourself REAL self. Only you can do that. If you don’t know yourself, you can’t change your life. You can do it. You must be comfortable with yourself. No one can make you comfortable with yourself but you. Why not do it. What are you waiting for?

Life is too short to waste. Don’t waste yours. It is your life. Make yourself comfortable with who you are. Don’t put yourself down. Always lift yourself up. To do that, you must be patient with yourself.

Learning Is Movement

Jiddu Krishnamurti said, “Learning is movement from moment to moment.” It takes courage to learn the right things. The things that will reveal who we really are. Learning is what gives us hope. Learning is growing. If you are not learning, you are failing. Do you want to fail?

You can learn anything you want to learn in life. But you have got to be real with yourself. Because if you don’t know what you want to learn, you will waste your time learning anything. And if you learn anything, you will get anything. And anything cannot give you what you want. The only thing that can give you what you want is to learn something specific to your life.

Learning is movement from stage to stage. It is not going to be easy, but if you don’t learn, you cannot move to the next level. To move from where you are to where you want be, you must learn more about yourself, about what you want, about how to get what you want, about who is going to travel with you. You can’t do it alone. You can’t succeed alone. You need good people to help you grow.

You can do it. Don’t be discouraged. Don’t let people talk you out of your dreams. Stick to your dreams. It is never too late late for you to learn what you want to learn. Just prepare yourself to learn about what you don’t know. No matter how tough, don’t quit, keep learning.

Learning is the way.
