Great article! Some activities such as doing Yoga, listening to music, doing Emotional Freedom Technique, writing thoughts and feelings on paper, letting go and allowing in, writing journal, working out etc have helped me explore my true self

This is a great post. No, actually a really good one. Good reminder.
My question is this though, when do we actually listen to other becuase we may be doing something at different times unawarely. For example I may not want to relax right now, but I may want to relax some other time. I may not realize that I want to relax right now becuase I don’t think that is correct. All of a sudden I want to relax not becuase wanted to but I didn’t know about it, now I’m convinced relaxing is good. It is often the case that we are not doing what we really want to do, but are doing something because we think we should want to do it. Are there exceptions to when we are not doing something out of ignorance, and how would we know our true integrity?Or must we know all circumstances before making a conscious decision? Hope it makes sense, if it doesn’t please point it out.

I agree with all that was said. Does that mean that you are doing my thinking or that the way you think is somehow reflecting my own philosophy and that there is
a unified reality that is not necessarily shared by all of us due to a certain attitude that acts like a filter to make us seem to share a certain sameness of experience?
Those of us who are “different” seem to belong to a group whos unity is of a reality
not shared by the majority. In this idea, those who are “unique” , really belong to a
oneness of being in the spiritual sense and all others “uniqueness” is a state of being that exists outside of that unity. This makes them lost in a sense and deprived of membership in that unity and of its benefits. ——-Doug Rosbury

[...] Finding your true self – TheRateRaceTrap.com – Stephen Mills has written a great article on being alone and following your true self rather than be swayed by others. He also talks about being your own best friend which is a topic I am writing about just now so was very timely. [...]

Great post! You are writing about my past life. However, I have woken up. I am now exploring my fantasies and dreams. It feels great. Life is short. Take actions on your dreams now and don’t have any regrets!

Thanks for the post!

I read a similar idea from Zen Mind Beginner Mind, “Express your true self.” It goes right in line with what you are saying in this post. When we know our core selves, we can maximize our happiness.

All very true.

I also find that as I find my true self and don’t restrict myself to suit others I have deeper friendships and get on better with others!
