Like chapters in a book, life chapters signify transition and change. As the author of your own life, character development occurs as a process of reflection. If you are unsatisfied with yourself, decide what you want and start writing your current chapter to accommodate that character. As you reflect on prior chapters remembered ‘facts’ may soften to suspicion. As the ‘better you’ evolves in the current chapter, it might be revealed that those suspicions were merely misapprehension; that your character in that past moment was justified in that suspicion, but the ‘better you’ now knows better. That is the character you strive to continue developing in future chapters.
