I\u2019ve begun my own journey towards finding that out, and there is a really great book that could help you with that. I\u2019m still in the beginning of it, but I have learned also through meditation and listening to myself. The book is called Who Are You Meant to Be? By Anne and Heather Dranitsaris. I would highly recommend it.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Eduardo T. It&#39;s a very complex situation. And I feel a lot of times the same.
