Introduction

You may ask, why would you ever set such a task onto yourself? I respond by asking you – when was the last time you ever challenged yourself rather than had someone challenging you? I came across many circumstances and different characters which changed me; consequently I felt that I could never beat these people or tasks unless I began to know how to beat myself. Then I could have the power to beat anything or anyone out there.

Yes, I felt scared to confront all of my fears, loves and daily circumstances, my addictions, loses, regrets, pains, dreams, failures, achievements, ignorance and knowledge. Wouldn’t you fear your own self? I cringe to think that others out there do not truly know. If they did, maybe the world would be a better place instead of a dying world with programmed zombies filling and killing it. You do not need to understand me, or even agree with me, but if you make it through my one year journey, then I hope you feel me, yourself and see life a little differently than before.

These are not writings for someone who does not want to see, it is a book for people who already see and want to take their mask off. What would I achieve by doing this one year challenge? It was unclear for me but I hoped that I would see myself in a completely different way from how I had when I first started. I was motivated each day with the thought of awakening my soul and by all the people who would dismiss my dreams of completion, but the main cause of this project was to observe my daily reactions to my own experiences. Would I repeat the same emotions like a robot or would I evolve without recognising myself by the end of this long gruelling process?

In one year I studied and I researched many different theories, religions, ideas, philosophies, poetry and writers to open my mind and to grow in the fastest way possible, to then present to you my thoughts differently and on subjects which may never have occurred in your mind before. At the end of the book I shall list numerous sources which I came across throughout the year, in case you would like to read or watch what my mind was projected from.

“We must conquer our own mind before delving into other minds, we must know ourselves before know- ing any other and we must remember how little we are within this vast universe that we all share and call home.”
– Yolanda De Iuliis

The Memoirs of ‘I’ Description:

Philosophical and soulful, these memoirs offer an account of a character struggling to self reflect on a daily basis, presenting a wonderful insight into the mind of a thinker. This is a book that should be read by anyone who wishes to see through another’s eyes, or by those who want to look anew at the simple and extreme thoughts lying behind our existence.
