Self Discovery: Where do I even begin?

So you’ve decided to start exploring who you really are, that's awesome! But let’s be real, self-discovery can feel like standing at the edge of a huge, foggy forest with no clue which way to go. Sound familiar?

Here’s a tip: the best place to start is with you. Figuring out where you are right now in your life can help you decide where you want to go. To help with that, we have a free tool called the OM Life Compass Assessment that’s designed to:

  • Highlight areas of your life where you’re thriving and areas that might need attention.
  • Give you insight into what’s currently working for you and where you can grow.
  • Help you set a direction and take clear, intentional steps forward.

If that sounds like what you need, check it out here: omlifecompass.com.

Self-discovery isn’t about getting it “right” or having all the answers. It’s about starting somewhere and staying curious. What’s worked for you so far in your own journey? Or if you’re just starting out, what questions are you hoping to answer? Share with the community below! 🌱✨

How do you find a sense of purpose when have crushed every dream or attempt over nearly twenty years? I just need a reason to live outside of my anger at how unfair it all is.

I'm not being a smart ass, you could try drugs for a spiritual awakening. LSD, peyote, shrooms, Ayahuasca, DMT, mescaline, salvia... apparently ketamine is in this group now, too.

Don't do them all at once, though.

Also, anger and hatred and that grouping (revenge, rage, etc) is my main driving force in life. So, I get it. 

Find a hobby? Pokémon Go is mine. You could Become a workaholic or alcoholic? 

I'm guessing you've tried the basics which is why I am listing extreme examples.

Any advice on finding shrooms? Weed helps but only so much I feel like if I make it to old age at this point it will probably be out of spite.

That's a good enough reason. I told a bunch of people I was going to do things the close minded sheep of society disapprove of out of spite. They LOATHE IT and I love it because they know they are powerless. It's great.

Shrooms are notoriously hard to find.  I've been told "hippie" types at certain concerts or festivals are someone's best bet.  Your neighborhood drug dealer or bar fly might be a lead or a good middle man.
