What do I want? Learning about yourself

It sounds very easy but at the same time one of the most difficult tasks that I ever faced. I often hear people saying - how can I achieve something when I dont know what I want.. Yep, this question to my opinion is the essence af all your great results and at the same time it is one of the most difficult to answer. Is it really possible to know what you truly want and where do you want to be in 5 years, 10 years time and start to plan for it? I don't know. I keep on asking the same questions to myself - what do I really want, where do I want to go and be. Sometimes my answer would sound like - oh, come on, we are on this earth only for .. years, just enjoy it. Do what ever brings happiness and joy! But then other times it would be more like - aren't we here to accomplish something with our lives? Maybe I should commit and help people, nature. And then other times answers would be - check this out - he is a million. I want one (or maybe even two millions) too! :) Recently I came across one of the theory, which I thought was dissent enough and deserves considering. Basically the idea is find out personal strength and then capitalize on them - that will help achieve what ever whiled dreams you have. EG. - I am freaked out about achieving. I need goals, I need targets and then I will perform. When I perform well I am happy I achieved what I wanted and then I go to the next achievement. Therefore, the best job for me would be something to do with project management, entrepreneur, etc. It is not 100% rule but at least it is an idea! There lots of pros and cons to this system, however, it is truly important to understand who you are. This particular system is here The main idea is - it is much easier to be the best at what you know/do then try to become good in all areas at once. Check it out and let me know what you think.
