I don’t have any principles - no standards, no boundaries, and no rules for decision-making. For a long time I thought it was alright. I told myself that I was simply an easy-going person: everything was fine as long as I got the outcome I wanted. Now, in retrospect, I can see that this mindset has done more harm than good.
Without principles, I can’t judge whether my actions are taking me closer to the life I want - because I don’t know what that life looks like. My goals become vague, and I only realise something is wrong after the damaged has been done.
After all, a person who refuses to understand himself will struggle to understand his surroundings and may slowly lose control of his own life.
And I don’t want to live like that.
