• Whenever we are going through a rough time in life and feel that nothing works, we start to reassess things.
• Personality typology can be used as a map to start exploring new things.
• Pain becomes overwhelming when there is nothing or no one to guide, help or understand. For some, there might be a point when they plan on killing themselves and even if it is not physical, a part of them dies because they can’t be their authentic self.
• Re-evaluation is not always the way. If you are sincere in your belief and you are happy, keep doing it.

• Pursuing happiness is never wrong but doing it leads people to think that they are selfish since along the process, they hurt and drive away the people around them. Personality development is prevented because of this fear of being lonely.
• Living authentically to yourself by having your needs met makes you a productive person.
• It allows you to give more to people in your life since you already have something to give. Giving permission to be yourself in turn gives permission for others around you to be themselves.

Exercises we recommend in this podcast:

• Spend time to explore opportunities. Grab whatever is available that helps. Start out small. Getting out of your comfort zone will give you an idea on the direction you want to go in life.
• Ask yourself what you want to tell yourself five years from now?
