“Your vision will become clear only when you look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes.”

Carl Jung

Simplified Meaning:

When you take the time to understand your own feelings and desires, your goals and purpose in life become more obvious. For example, imagine a person who spends all their time trying to follow what others say they should do—like getting the job others think is best, or living in a way that society expects. They might have many dreams about what they want to achieve but never feel truly satisfied or certain about their path. In contrast, someone who pauses and asks themselves what really matters to them, what makes them happy, and what their true strengths and passions are, finds a deeper sense of clarity and direction. By looking within and understanding themselves better, they 'wake up' to their true potential and can make decisions that lead to a more fulfilling life. To live wisely, it's helpful to reflect inwardly and discover your own unique path, rather than getting lost in chasing external goals that may not truly resonate with who you are.
