Knowing Yourself

To know who we are and why we are, is the biggest challenge that a person generally feels, at least once in his lifetime. When a person searches for questions like "At what things am I good?", "Will be ever able to make an impact with my special skill, at any point of time in life?" or "How can I prove myself, that yes I can do something out of the box?", he just underestimates and demotivates himself. The main question arises, what makes an individual think of all these questions. The reason could be many, but my personal opinion says that, (learning from my best friend's experience), these questions come to one's mind, when he either gets dejected or his talent is not showcased in a proper way, and may be not getting the right platform to express or it could be the lack of confidence as well as a psychological fear of facing a large audience for the first, thinking what would happen if I don’t perform my best today. But life doesn't give you a single opportunity to prove your mettle; there are opportunities, which are knocking at your door. All you need to do is to open that door and welcome these opportunities with a big smile, and try to prove yourself. Aiming for success at one go is an excellent thing, but sometimes when you face a "shock", it is nothing but an opportunity provided by Him, to prove yourself and let the world, know who you are and why you are. Once you prove, who you are, then just feel the confidence that you would get from within, and you would be like, "come any challenge, I would tell you who I am". Such a confidence makes the person feel happy and he tends to have an optimistic approach for all the upcoming challenges in life. He just gleefully accepts the challenges and takes these challenges as fun, it no longer remains a burden for the individual.

Thus, when you know yourself, you can do anything and there would be nothing such as "impossible" or "I can't do this". To know yourself is the biggest strength and cursing yourself for your strength is the biggest weakness.
