Exercise On Self Discovery (cont.)

Think about which qualities you need to possess as a professional or as a
homemaker e.g. qualities of a team leader in a corporate organization would
be: efficiency, responsibility, focus, precision, determination, etc. Then,
leaving aside the professional aspect, explore your basic, innate qualities.
Reflect on your inner and spiritual values. Which values make you happy?
Look deep into your inner self. Take some time in this and note down three
of these essential values in your life. What conclusion have you come to?
What are these values?

*The more we really understand ourselves, with our defects, weaknesses,
virtues and values, the better our relationships will be with others.* We
will understand when they have little understanding of themselves and
others. Knowing oneself in-depth, taking into account everything described
above as well as in yesterday's message, requires time, effort, observation
and the practice of silence. In silence one can begin a conversation with
oneself. In this way we can gradually discover our inner beauty and
strength, and be aware of the basis of our value and dignity as human
beings. When we relearn to see ourselves with our original qualities and
innate values, it is also easier to recognise these qualities in others.
