Man’s main task is to give birth to himself, to become what he potentially is.  The most important product of his effort is his own personality.  – Erich Fromm

I personally agree with this quote as I believe we are each born with a unique purpose, which I will not belabor here as I have expressed that in countless other posts around the topics of passion and purpose.  However, this did provoke a question I believe we should all ask ourselves.

“How much time do we allocate to ‘giving birth to myself so that I may become my potential’?”

Let me know your thoughts!
