I always had a doubt about why some people think so positively and react so differently in certain situations while many others don’t. When I grew up, I found the answer to this and realized that our behaviour and the way we react really depend on the way we saw people around us reacting to those situations. It’s like we saw it and thought that it's the way to act when this situation occurs in our life. History really repeats itself, and we can say that it is because we are doing the same things that our grandparents or parents did in a particular situation, we do it exactly the same way.
I found this out when I started living alone. I noticed that I also had certain behaviours that I never liked about my parents. Then it hit me that I must have some other behaviours also, so I started to notice. I noticed that I was reacting in a similar way my family reacted in those situations. It was definitely not easy to change the inherited habits, but it was important to discover my true self.
If I keep acting the same way that people did around me, then I would never be able to discover my true self. I tried things, but ultimately the solution was to be aware of how I am reacting, waiting before I say something, and thinking before important decisions. I have found out things about myself and have created my own way since then. This is my journey to self-discovery, and I believe that we all should start noticing the way we react and behave and how much this is because of the influence of our family. Then only in my opinion, one can actually discover the real person they are.
@Ayush Gupta This perspective is truly refreshing👏🏻
Recognizing the impact of family behavior on our own reactions is a powerful step toward self-discovery
