Several threads and posts on this Gifted Issues Discussion Forum seek life direction. In addition to learning of other's lived experiences, gaining knowledge of how systems and processes tend to work, and receiving links to resources which provide specialized information, there is also the highly personal and individualized aspect to finding or changing one's life direction:
"
Know Thyself"
- attributed to ancient Greek philosophershttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Know_thyselfIt is possible that no two people will:
- recognize the same opportunity in various circumstances,
- create the same list of PROs and CONs,
- evaluate the amount of time/effort to seize the opportunity in the same manner,
- prioritize the steps involved in moving forward in the same order, or
- weigh the rewards using the same scale.
A person who remains both philosophically consistent and open minded may best embody the positive growth involved to "Know Thyself."
