Document Summary

Human beings are drawn by once force- care about our self. At our essence, we care for ourselves (who we are, what happens to us) [love for ourselves] One of the ways we mainly care about ourselves is being ahead of ourselves (thinking about tomorrow) We have a tendency to think of our lives in terms of projects/plans- future goals. Main reason for this= a deep confusion in what it is to actually care about ourselves. We feel safe being like everyone else due to the anxiety of self-consciousness, not fitting in, not being out casted/bullied/included- we want to fit in. Our plan (about who we want to be) becomes a component of us. Anything outside of our plan becomes irrelevant and an annoyance. We lose sense of who we authentically are because of this plan/ making sure it works. No longer are out plans serving us as human beings, we"re serving our plans.
