The Obsession With Me, Myself & Iಮಾದರಿ
The Solution to Self-Obsession
Regardless of each person’s unique experience, the consensus remains the same. Everyone, all over the world is trying to find out what they can do to make themselves the most attractive, the happiest, the most successful and the wealthiest person they can possibly be.
While such pursuits are not necessarily bad in and of themselves, they tend to make a person obsess over their ‘me, myself, and I’ at the expense of caring for others.
My friends, there is nothing wrong about having a desire to be successful or work on our weak spots. But as we try to improve these areas, it is important to keep in mind that the answer to our insecurities cannot be found in our physical appearance, job title or bank account.
In fact, the solution to our self-image problems –that are virtually triggered by our desire to be approved and accepted by others– cannot only be found through selflessness.
Truly, when we think about ourselves less and make an effort to focus on God’s word more, He will give us the drive, wisdom and self-discipline we need to bring about lasting change in our lives.

About this Plan
When we lack meaningful relationships with others, we tend to rely on our inner thoughts for assurance and affirmation. While this inner voice can sometimes be helpful, if we have no other voice of reason to rely on, it can drive us to make poor decisions. This 3-day plan reminds us to focus on Christ to avoid becoming overly fixated with ourselves.
