Spiritual Self Discovery and Self Expression

Self-discovery and self-expression are essential if you desire to grow in spiritual awareness. The emphasis in this book is the spiritual dimension of personal development. Personal development (often called self-improvement) is a popular subject these days. You can spend thousands of dollars attending courses and seminars; read hundreds of books that have been published on this subject. Many of these books, seminars, and courses can be quite helpful, and provide effective ideas and concepts that will be useful to you. Yet, there is usually something missing - the spiritual aspect. We spiritualize the concept of self-development or self-expression, and raise it to a higher level. Ask yourself, 'Am I using my unique God-given talents? Am I focusing my physical, mental, and spiritual energies in the right direction? Am I excited about life? Am I becoming that which I most sincerely desire to be? Do I know where I am going? Is there a plan? Am I genuinely being true to myself? If not, why not?' Assess every area of your life so that you will know exactly where you stand in relation to your goals. Each theme will have his or hers viewpoint - the masculine and feminine!
