From the moment we were born, we start by imitating others. Imitate the language of the adult, and we learn the language. Imitate the behavior of adults, we learn to eat and walk. Everyone grows up step by step in imitation. So imitation becomes inertia and habit. we go to school, make friends, and get married.
Are we all ever feel confused? Why do people's lives have to be carried out in the same way as the standard procedure ? The purpose of knowing yourself is to stop and study yourself when you are mature and strong enough. You are unique and you are no longer drifting. Gradually distinguish yourself from the needs, preferences, and aesthetics of the public, and make yourself a self, a complete, independent self, rather than a copy-and-paste version of anyone.
After recognizing that I have taken a big step forward in my life, many confusions, conflicts and contradictions in reality will been solved. Because at this time your starting point is your individual needs, individual thinking, and no longer entangled in those messy thoughts from outside. Your thinking becomes clear, your perspective becomes clear, and the thoughts of your mind are all answered.
The biggest advantage of this is that after you know yourself, you are living for yourself and have a clear conscience of yourself. Even if you are old, you will have a full life in accordance with your own wishes. Is there anything more meaningful than "no regret" in this life?
