The
following are a set of 10 questions that everyone must ask
themselves in order to discover their true self.
1. What about myself do I like most?
Perhaps the most important goal in one’s life must be to achieve inner peace and this is not possible without accepting yourself for who you are. Hence why the first question must be, ‘What about yourself do you like and appreciate the most?’ By preparing a list of things you like about yourself, self-acceptance is built.
2. What aspects of my life do I wish to see a change in?
3. What are my fears?
5. Am I happy doing what I’m currently doing?
Another life-changing question everyone must ask themselves periodically is whether they are actually happy doing what they are currently doing. Is it really what you wanted to be doing or are you just following instructions of those who have dictated to you that this is how life should be? If the answer is no, then you must ask yourselves what can be done to change this.
7. Who inspires me the most and what is it that inspires me about them?
“We must let go of the life we have planned, so as to accept the one that is waiting for us.” – Joseph Campbell
10. What do I believe in?
‘Do I believe in the idea of God? What does God represent in my life? Identifying with a religion irrespective of what you are born into highlights your moral principles in life and reflects what exactly you believe to be good and to be wrong.
A person who believes in God is seeking security and a modem of self-reassurance as well as a conscience upon which they can build a set of values and virtues abide by for a life with the least regrets. The belief in God shows that such persons need the responsibility of being answerable to someone who checks out their actions.

2. What aspects of my life do I wish to see a change in?
Just as important as knowing the positive
things, equally necessary is to ask oneself, ‘What
aspects of my life do I wish to see a change in, with
regards to myself?’ This helps to
improve the quality of you as a person by working on
your negative aspects.
3. What are my fears?
Confronting one’s fears is a big milestone,
conquering of the fears and insecurities is only
possible when you recognize what these fears are- hence
the next thing you should be asking yourself is, ‘What
are your fears? What holds you back?’
“Fear is only as deep as the mind allows” –
Ralph Waldo Emerson
4. What am I grateful for?
Gratitude is one of the most important virtues of a person. In order to understand and appreciate all the things that hold value and render you thankful for, you must ask yourself, ‘So far in my life, what are all the good things and who are all the people in my life I should be thankful for?’This lets you access all the people who mean the most to you but most importantly who has been there for you in times of despair.
