Learning About Yourself

It takes a person a long time to shed the skins they have grown to feel like they fit in, in society. Growing up people have different ways of allowing themselves to feel like they fit in. In our journeys we change and alter out real selves in order to become what we think we should be to fit in with the people we associate with. I personally have done this several times. It comes to an old Chinese Proverb “you are what you surround yourself with.” In the different places I have lived and diverse community types I now notice the changes I went through. In various settings we adapt to survive in a mater of speaking. We actually adapt to blend in with our surroundings or become what we feel is wanted/needed.

This is all part of coming to know ourselves. We all go through various changes good and bad. Hopefully we realize the bad and make adaptions to correct these. This is what leads us to know who we really are and where we would like to be in our lives.

USING MY TIME TO LEARN NEW THINGS.

NEW!

About me:

I have always been a person who liked to know how things worked. As a kid I had a Walkman yeah I’m dating myself. the player stopped working. I figured it was broken so if I took it apart to fix it and it didn’t fix it no big deal. It was already broken. I got the tools i thought i would need and started to disassemble. after getting it opened, I looked around to see what could cause the issue I was having. Found a drive belt was off of one of the pulleys to move the tape across the audio head. With a little persuading and some effort, I got it back aligned and in place to move the mechanisms properly.

Now I was never a person who did well in school. They said I had Learning disabilities. I was diagnosed with ADD, Dyslexia, and reading issues unable to retain info I read. I have an overactive mind and couldn’t concentrate on the content. All of these issues in school were just issues in school. when I was out doing things with my hands, I can concentrate on what I’m doing. This led to doing many types of physical jobs. During my life anything involving learning new things and working with my hands was a good fit for my way of understanding. In school, your tech classes and physical active classes I excelled in. Woodshop, Automotive, Gym and home economics as well as math and science classes I did well in. I could understand the use of the information and how it pertained to my life and how it would help me.

IF YOU HAVE SIMULAR THOUGHTS WE REALIZE WHAT OTHERS CALL DEFICIENCIES ARE STRENGHT TO US.

HERE I WILL BE SHOWING HOW WE CAN USE THESE DIFFERANCES TO MAKE THE MOST OF HOW TO USE OUR STRENGTHS. IT ISN’T A ROAD PAVED WITH GOLD TO EASY LIFE. THROUGH MY STRUGGLES IT HAS OCCURED THAT ALL OF THE TURMOIL THAT HAS BEEN OVERCOME JUST MAKES US STRONGER AND MORE RESILIANT TO CHANGE AS WELL AS DIFFICULTY. THIS GIVES US A LEG UP AT OVERCOMING OBSTACLES AND TRYING TIMES. AS THEY SAY “WHAT DOSEN’ KILL YOU MAKES YOU STRONGER” AND “IF IT WAS EASY EVERYONE WOULD BE DOING IT.”
