SHADESOFEXPERIENCE

What does it mean to truly "be yourself" and why it is challenging? Can language truly describe the shades of our experiences and feelings? Why is it important to look at things from as many points of view as possible? Can integrating life experiences help you feel young again?... I've thought about these and other questions for years, first as a philosopher, later as founder and president of Flow Research: Now in Shades of Experience: How to Be Yourself and Love What You Do I explore these topics in depth... What does it mean to be yourself? It might seem as if we could not help but be ourselves. After all, we can't be somebody else! Yet it can be surprisingly difficult to be truly authentic. We face pressure from peers, family and society to be anything but ourselves if we want to be accepted.
