And we spoke earlier about disappointment, but it comes up again now because the opposite of knowing yourself is obviously not knowing yourself. And the gap between expectation and reality is disappointment. So if you don't understand yourself, you will be disappointed. You know, why didn't I do better? Why do I feel this way? Why does it hurt me that? Why do I always cry when? All of those types of sentences, right? It's a lack of understanding. I mean, when you're asking the question why, it's because you need an answer, right? You don't understand yet. So yeah, it's really, it's really about that understanding of yourself in order to be able to do better in life, in your relationships, in your romantic relationships, in the workplace, wherever that is. The clearer you are about knowing who you are, the better those relationships will become.
