Knowing what you want, and allowing yourself to go after it, are crucial. I think the latter comes first. For me, self-knowledge began the moment I allowed myself to pursue and have a life I wanted. Only then did I begin to do the work of finding out what that was and why I didn’t know. As long as I bought the story that I wasn’t worthy of wanting anything for myself and for my own life, I continued to “not know” what I wanted — a state that most people stay in.
