How to Identify and Live by Your Core Values for a More Fulfilling Life
" Can you remember who you were, before the world told you who you should be?" -Charles Bukowski. This line has been attributed to Bukowski many times, but it's not in any of his published poems or novels... Sooo it is likely that he didn't write it, but... He is one of my all time favourites, so I’m keeping it here anyway. Especially since we will be discussing self-identity and societal expectations. Let's jump in...
