My "Personal Growth" Thus Far..

In terms of personal growth I think I have been changing over the past couple months. However, I don't think I have gotten too far in the goals I actually made for myself at the very beginning of the semester. So when I say I've changed it hasn't been by eating out less, although I have been doing better with that. So in terms of personal growth I believe that I have become more of myself. There was awhile there where I was being someone I wasn't and pretending to be it to just get by. I believe I have bettered myself by finally deciding who and want I need in life. That was a big personal growth step for me. So maybe not I can start with my original goal and not eat out as much:)

"Wanting to be someone else is a waste of the person you are" - Kurt Cobain

"Wanting to be someone else is a waste of the person you are" - Kurt Cobain

I think this quote is pretty self-explanatory, and I agree with it. You were made the way you were because there's nobody else like that, and if you want someone else's life then you are wasting your personality. There are also many people who like the person you are, and if you are trying to be somebody else you could lose ones you love. When you try to be somebody else you compromise the person you could turn out to be. I think a lot of problems occur when people start trying to be somebody else. They often lose sense of who they really are and forget what they actually want.
