To be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you everybody else, means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting. ~ e.e. cummings
Three methods to learn wisdom: reflection, which is noblest; imitation, which is easiest; experience, which is the bitterest.
-Confucius
Recall a ten year old self. What did you believe? How far have you grown from then? What do you take with you from that self? What surprised you that you leaned? Describe a growth experience that resulted from a disappointment.
Reflect upon events in your life where wisdom appeared after a struggle. If you returned to the scene of the event, how might you adjust your actions?
How often have you used imitation to add dimensions to your personality?
