Knowing Yourself
How well do you know yourself?
The quote “what other people think of me is none of my business” has been attributed to countless famous people.
It can be tempting to compromise who we are for the sake of being accepted by others.
If you want to know yourself, you need to dig deep and find your authentic self—the real “you.”
Listing your core values is a useful way to start.
Consciously knowing your values will ground you, empower you, and enhance your self-confidence.
By knowing yourself, you can establish where you are, where you want to be, and how to get there.

Control
One thing we humans love is control—to be in control. Or, at least, we love the idea of being in control. We tend to link control with safety.
The important thing is what we focus on. What is it we want to be in control of? What are we in control of?
Answer is, ourselves. Not...

Part of the personal growth process of acceptance is to accept what you don’t know.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!
