You are a complicated individual. You have emotions, habits,and dreams that creates your character from day one. By understanding yourself and how you interact with others can help you succeed in your journey toward your goals and dreams. When you see your strengths and weaknesses you start to see yourself and what you may need to go through life. Look up Johari's Window, a way to see where you are in the scheme of things. We all have four panes of this window, that help us to see ourselves. How others see us that is within ourselves, that we know about ourselves and we try to hide from others. How others see us that we don't see in ourselves and don't realize we are revealing. If you want to embrace your dream, you must be able to understand yourself and the relationships that you will encounter as you search out your dream. Go read the poem, We Where the Mask." by Paul Lawrence Dunbar. Sometimes in the game of life we all have to put on a mask. We have to talk a certain way, act a certain way in order to fit in. The question is do you need to wear a facade to get to your dream or do you want to be your true self. Learn yourself and always work on your weaknesses.
