I know that is like the conventional journaling medium shifted to the digital footprint. In my assumption, there are few readers in this blog hahaaa *siapa gw. Let's convey Hafni's mind and thoughts about life, especially life after a quarter-life crisis. *Disclaimer: Alhamdulillah w udh lewati my quarter life crisis (24-25 yo). *pardon my impromptu writing structure, grammar, tone of expression, cohesion, and conciseness :((, omg, it's so bad without Grammarly.
Before continuing the "Self-Authenticity" topic, I just ask myself: 1) What is your self-value; 2) What do you want to achieve in 1-5 years, and the long-term journey until at least 60 years old; 3) Figure out your SWOT analysis in current time and probably 1 month again. All of the prompts of the self-authenticity journey are revealed in the three following passages. It would be as summarized from the self-help book genre which I read such as 80/20 Pareto Principle by Richard Koch, Almost Adulting by dr. Nadhira Afifa, Grit by Angela Duckworth, and not only YouTube videos but also Spotify Podcast that have self-improvement content.
1) Self-value
Self-value is the condition while you as the individual entity define yourself without external interruptions, barriers, and validity. Just remember who you are and why you live in this dunya (re: world). Who are you? Please define yourself in three words.
1. X
2. Y
3. Z
Describe all of those keywords for yourself. Make your own description.
2. Targeted Achievement
Although life is unexpected and couldn't predicted mostly in the VUCA, TUNA, and BANI world (I don't care about how to distinguish the similar meanings of acronyms, just concluded as unpredictable things), we must have several fundamental targeted achievements that need the GRIT mindset and commitment. You can read the GRIT book for deeper understanding and insight *pardon w mager bettt nulis book summary GRIT. I think GRIT mindset is an essential thing that everyone must have.
3. SWOT analysis
Just take 5 minutes to evaluate your SWOT analysis while u feel upset and overwhelmed.
There are several pieces in my thoughts this night, right now I'm so sleepy. In the end, self-authenticity is the life journey that can drive the pureness of your actions and mind in unconditional things with an unconditional love mindset (re in Bahasa & Islamic ways: ikhlas w/o pamrih, if one day u achieved sth from ur action).
Cheers
Hafni
