living in now

control

people lie to themselves

thoughtkick:

“Do not expect people to tell you the truth because they also lie to themselves.”

Don Miguel Ruiz (via perfectquote)

self-awareness

is not self-consciousness

know thyself

it is the beginning

of wisdom

and a lifelong task

because we hate

to face our own ugliness

self-consciousness

seeks to manipulate

and control

how others perceive you

out of insecurity and

desperation to be

liked, accepted, validated

as a substitute

for genuine self-awareness

acceptance, understanding

growth, and change
