"The reason I enrolled in this Quest is to improve myself to understand and reach another level of consciousness"

Hi! I'm Cesar from Perù and I live in Milan, Italy. This is one of my first exercises and I really enjoying this quest. I had to meditated a lot to remember how I passed from the victim stage to the awakening. I remember me as a little kid (I guess I was 8) who started to read some books about personal growth because my father always believed in this and that helps me a lot to see, even in my childhood, many aspects in a different way but I never understood very well how to improve it. When I was at the "liceo" school (is like a second high school here in Italy), I decided to stop going school because I remember that every morning I saw this river of people who gets in, just because that was ok (even if many of them hated it) and that scared me a lot... I saw myself exactly the same. So then I started my personal projects and my own business because I wanted something different, something to be proud of. At first that was great but then, after several years, I felt overwhelmed and I was doing something that I really loved but I was no happy. There was something missing, something important that I start to really need but I never understood what was it. Then something interesting and really weird happened: the last year I decided to go vegan. I know, this could be funny but because of this, I started to see how I lived my whole life thinking and wishing something that I just saw in advertisings and how I lived my whole life follow traditions or rules that someone else decided once. So I started to wonder if this passive life I was living, was just with my food area... or maybe that took other areas of my life too... and I start to go deep. Day by day, I was shocked because the amount of information that I never had was huge and just now (I'm 34) I start to see things differently, better this time. So the last week happened that I watched with my brothers the film LUCY by Luc Besson, and that, was like fire... because in the film there is an analogy of the "Information" with different states of consciousness (the funniest thing is that I saw the film once but I totally don't got the message, founding the film too strange, but now was totally different!). I still remember, that night I couldn't sleep thinking about all the things we could manage with the right informations. Suddenly the morning after, I discover really by chance, the "Be Extraordinary" program in Instagram and I was literally crying a bit, because I know that coincidence never happens, so there must a bigger reason for that. The reason I enrolled in this Quest is to improve myself to understand and reach another level of consciousness to help my very proper essence, to open up my mind further than I know. I feel, I deeply feel that this information can help so many lives, making also our inner circles brighter because we get a better person. It's just the beginning but I never felt so lucky to be here. See you in the right time! (Sorry guys for my english, I did my best! Hugs)
