This is hard, painful and I feel really uninspired.
I’ve learned my lesson, when I am in this mood I need to lower my ambitions.
So, I’ve taken the first two problems, I wrote one sentence to develop each, and I’ve attached the initial questions.
I am taking it nice, easy, and slow. I know I won’t be finished in a week.
That is fine.
My Identity
When I had to change job I’ve asked myself a lot about my identity. What started as an inquiry into my professional world went over the boundaries and reached my personal sphere. I am writing every day to learn more about myself. I want to keep on writing not only to discover more about myself but also to leverage the many articles I wrote so far.
A temporary list of questions about my identity:
- how to be a good person.
- How to live a good life.
- How to find purpose and meaning.
- How to make the best use of my time.
- What is happiness? How to understand it and live with and without it.
- How to develop an interconnected system of habits to grow as a healthy, wealthy, and systemic human being, conscious citizens of the world, human beings, members of humankind.
- Develop self-awareness, self-expression.
- How to stay healthy.
- How to make my life meaningful, worthwhile.
Relationships
I cannot live alone. My life has a sense because of the people around me. What shall I know better about my relationships? How can I live better with them? For them? I would like to dedicate more focused reflection to relationships.
