There is a candle in your heart, ready to be kindled.

There is a void in your soul, ready to be filled.

You feel it, dont you?

Rumi

S elf-discovery is not a journey to discover someone new, its a journey to break down the barriers within yourself to discover who your soul always knew you were. The journey youre about to embark on will guide you toward kindling the candle in your heart and filling the void in your soul. Are you ready to take action?

Before we get down to business, its crucial to define what self-discovery actually means, and what would happen if you avoided taking the journey. Self-discovery is a process of understanding your own character and becoming aware of your potential and motives. If you discover yourself, youre able to tap into your passions, figure out your lifes purposethe reason you get up in the morningand learn what motivates you. Ultimately, discovering who you are and what you want to do allows you to unlock the best version of yourself.

Without discovering yourselfunderstanding your purpose, passions, potential, and motivesyoull never achieve something better than what you have now. Youll choose to live a life inundated by unconsciousness and the pain that comes along with it.

The purpose of this book is to teach you the three pillars of self-discoveryawareness, comfort zones, and intentional livingyoull need these tools for your journey. Learning about these pillars will help you discover who you are and aid you in the process of becoming the best version of yourself. When you discover who you are, youll be set free of taking the wrong paths in life.

Now you may be thinking , What if I feel like Ive already discovered who I was always meant to be? Thats okay. You see, this book isnt only about uncovering your path; it is also about living a more meaningful life. This book will help you discover ways to reinvent yourself or come more fully into yourself, and within these pages, I share the lessons that gave me the opportunity to evolve into my true, authentic self.

This book is a testament to how your actions and decisions can define your path. But these arent all the answers. Nobody can give you all the answers because each person is unique, with their own individual passions, their own purpose, and their own reason for being. Although I dont have all the answers for you in this book, the ones I have may change your life. I learned these lessons through personal experiences with different cultures, tests of patience, overcoming frustration, and solving the puzzles life threw at me. This book is the result of tireless work focused on creative self-growth.

Think about what brought you to this book and why you were called to open these pages. What are you searching for?

However, people like that are few and far between. In fact, in my eyes, they dont exist. Theres always work to do.

Maybe you already know how important it is to follow your heart and follow your gut but dont have the awareness to recognize or interpret the feelings associated with those promptings. You run through life quickly and forget to slow down and focus on yourselfyou neglect to take the proper time to hear your call and chase it.

Awareness offers clarity on how to adapt to the world around you and provides insight into the depth of your life beyond materialism.

But dont discount your weirdnessits what will lead you to be your most authentic self and let you stand out as a person. Embrace it. Do what you want to do, not what others tell you to do. Give yourself permission to let go. If this is yousomeone who is ready to live outside their comfort zone and really start their life this book is for you .

Do you have trouble leading an intentional life? Do you float around not paying close attention to your habits and goals, or fail to think of a system to accomplish those endeavors?

Heres the thing: If you are struggling to discover your path and purpose, you have a spot on the roster.

Regardless of the roadblocks and hiccups youve experienced in life so far, if you are here, its clear youre ready to take the first step into something bigger than yourselfuncovering the best version of yourself.

Ive lived through all of those situations. I lacked confidence, I was afraid to do anything unique or challenging, I wasnt comfortable with being uncomfortable, and I was not living my truth or being my most authentic self. I knew I needed to shift things in my lifemy thoughts, my mindset, my energy, the way I talked to myself. Ive been there. Ive experienced lows, but I was able to follow the light and emerge from the tunnel. So can you.

No matter where you are in life right now, youre capable of making changes to improve the rest of your journey. Every moment is an opportunity to turn things around. Grasp that understanding and run free.
