Are You Actualizing Yourself?
Self-Actualization
What is it all about? It is realizing all your potentials upon a clear understanding of your being and its wiring. It is like the situation of a seed realizing itself into a tree through the experience of self-awareness and an interaction with the forces of life.
Self-awareness is the most important ingredient in self-realization. If you don't know you and the laws of your being, you will have trouble applying thought and action in the mix towards reaching self-actualization.
Self-awareness is beyond knowing your skills and gifts, but knowing your programme, how you experience the world through your basic programme and how your happiness and sadness are determined by this basic programme.
Self-awareness also goes deeper than understanding your basic programme and all the skills and gifts that you have. It is about knowing who you are in essence, your source, your basic composition as mind and spirit, and your destiny as Soul. This understanding, supported with the thoughts and actions of expressing your creativity in the community of humanity, are steps to self-realization.
Like a seed that grows into a beautiful tree, or a flower that blossoms and shines its glory under the sun, you will find your true happiness when you self-realize. It is the ultimate success.
Take heed of the lessons life is giving you about you. Understand your strengths and weaknesses and use them for good. Do not live another man's life and do not get lost on the highway of life.
