Understand Your Dreams and Use Them for Personal Development in Insight into
Your Inner Person
Dreams are a way of establishing a link between our body, soul and mind. It communicates
with us in the disguise of various symbols. When we are awake our conscious mind is working
all the time. That is to say that we are aware of everything happening around us. Though our
unconscious mind is also working, it observes everything and derives meaning from it but we
do not realize it. However in our state of sleep, this conscious mind is subsided by our
unconscious mind that takes full charge over us. It suspends our rational self. This
unconscious mind displays in our dream many things that it has observed throughout the day
or sometimes it bind together small pieces of information and predict our future. It also
sometimes warns a person about the health problem that lies in future for them. There are
also some dreams that are a result of our fears, worries and apprehensions. These are
termed as nightmares. Last but not the least is the day dreams. These dreams take us into
the fantasy world, away from the harsh realities of life and make us feel more relaxed
thereby.
The importance of dreams can be understood by studying how it contributes in healing
ourselves. Dr. Jung gave the concept for this relation between the two. It says that a person
can analyze his or her dreams and this will help the person in knowing his own strengths and
weaknesses. He or she can recognize their hidden fears by way of their dreams. This will help
him or her in knowing their true self and ways by which he can solve his problems and
overcoming their fears. Dreams help us in expressing our repressed desires. As our
repressed desires get an outlet, the person by itself feels good and it thus aids in overall
personality development of the person. This helps to get rid of impurities or the negative
thoughts in our mind and instead replace it with more positive thoughts. Thus, it gives an
optimistic attitude to life. So, the utmost way of knowing our inner self is through our dreams.
To bring out the best in oneself and bring out his talent, an individual needs to dream of
higher aims in life. This will motivate him to work hard and give his best for the task. The key
to a victorious life lies in realizing our own mistakes, talent, and to develop an understanding
to deal with the ways of life. And ultimately it is our dreams that make us realize all these
things. However, one should be cautious that in dreaming high he should not hurt anyone. For
example a person may dream to become rich in a short period, but in doing so if he takes to
the ways of theft, robbery, kidnapping or any other negative ways, then he may succeed in
achieving our tasks but this will surely put a question on his personality development.
The main aspects for a good personality can be categorized into four categories – physical,
psychological, social and philosophical. Our dreams deal with all these aspects and equally
affect them. After a bad sleep, we may feel tired and unable to carry out our tasks well. This
will leave us feeling dejected and unsatisfied from life, which further leads to anxiety,
influences our attitude, a feeling frustration and irritation within us. So, as we are not able to
achieve a calm and relaxed mind, it will put a stop to our development as a whole.
Hence, living and enjoying a stress free life, one has to analyze his power of dreams and
work in the direction of fulfilling them. Develop your personality by understanding your
dreams.
