Humanistic growth is the process of creating the best version of oneself.
- Book Intro
-
One thing to always remember when aiming to create the best version of the self is the idea that everything is getting better. The passing strong winds, the drenching rain, or the hot summer sun—all of these are great ingredients that play a role in the completion of the self. One must believe that every day is another process for creating the best possible day.
While we strive to become the best versions of ourselves, we endlessly seek the answers to life and directions to follow in our own lives. Is there any way to slip my head out from the yoke of work? Is there no way to live in peace without being influenced by someone or something? Will tomorrow be better than today? Why can’t I seem to get along with this person? Some thoughts take us a step forward, while others take us a step back. Likewise, some thoughts remain as delusions, while others take form and change the world.
The subject of humanities originates from love towards people and the world; it is not just something to be learned, but something to be practiced and extended into life itself. Therefore, we contemplate more deeply and seek more intensely the answers to our questions on our journey. Contemplation in daily life leads to the development of a personal philosophy of life, which becomes the driver of change in each aspect of one’s life. Discussing larger, life-impacting topics such as passion, work, growth, thought, dignity, harmony, and relationships, the author utilizes multiple angles to search for methods through which we may contemplate and work towards richer and more balanced lives.
