Knowing Yourself is the Key
Greetings All,
Today, 12th August is her Majesty Queen Sirikit of Thailand’s birthday. First, I would like to wish Her Majesty the Queen a happy birthday! 
The Queen, who rules not only the brains but also the hearts of the people, has earned deep respect for herself with her hard work for the welfare of Thai society and crafts. The citizens of Thailand have deep reverence for her.
As she is regarded as a mother to all Thai people, we also celebrate 12th August as National Mother’s Day. Thus, I would like to wishing all the mothers a day as bright and wonderful as you are - Happy Mother’s Day to You!
I posted some more information about Mother’s Day in Thailand on My Blog. If you are interested you can read it there.
Speaking of success, I believe every one of us all trying to be successful in our lives especially in our professional lives. However, you know - not everyone will be successful.
Then, what is it that makes people successful? And what is it that makes people happy?
All though success doesn’t automatically lead to happiness and happiness certainly doesn’t automatically lead to success, the two actually are very closely related. In order to achieve both, there’s one thing you need - that one thing is to know yourself.
Of course we all know ourselves to some extent. Well, believe it or not, not all of us truly know ourselves.
Here is what I think – in order to truly know yourself, being honest with yourself is the first thing to start with. It means that you have to take a good look at who and what you are and be honest with what you found. Discover what your strengths and weaknesses are. Know your likes and dislikes, and know what you do well and what you don’t do quite so well.
Once you’re honest with yourself and once you truly know yourself, then you can begin to act accordingly. Such acts like you can always playing toward your strengths and away from your weaknesses, working at something you enjoy or at least something that is related to what you enjoy. And make solid decisions that you won’t regret and you’ll always be able to live with etc.
However, I see, there are many people don’t truly know themselves and then they end-up making decisions and trying to do things that they’re either horrible at or that they hate. This ultimately leads to their failure and unhappiness.
I also see some people who actually know themselves well, unfortunately, they are try to lie to themselves instead of be honest with themselves. They try to talk themselves into thinking and feeling certain ways instead of in their own ways. It just doesn’t work.
Always honest with yourself and make sure you take the time to really get to know yourself is the really key to lead you to success. It applies to every one and to almost every situation. Then from there you can make solid decisions that will positively influence your future.
Take the time to know yourself and you will be both successful and happy.
