The goal of self-development is to attain inner maturity in all aspects of our personality. This maturity endows us with an intuition enabling us to distinguish our immediate needs from our ultimate need. It urges us to wake up from dreams, false hopes and endless desires, and see the light of Reality. It asks us to act on the living present, instead of crying and moaning over the past, to take charge of ourselves and forge our own destiny.
