    Find what you were born for and live the life you were meant to.


    Identity. It’s an abstract term. But it starts with realizing where you came from, in order to know where you should be going. And that’s the difference between fulfillment and going through the motions day after day.

    Find clarity and direction, the true foundations of happiness.


    How to Find Yourself provides a thorough and scientific approach to understanding yourself and why you do the things you do. You will discover your values, the roots of your behaviors, and what makes you tick.

    And then you can use this information to your advantage.


    No more floating through life.


    Peter Hollins has studied psychology and peak human performance for over a dozen years and is a bestselling author. He has worked with a multitude of individuals to unlock their potential and path towards success. His writing draws on his academic, coaching, and research experience.


    Gain the self-awareness to live in tune with your intentions.


    •The historical and biological bases of personality and identity.

    •How to classify yourself using OCEAN.

    •The ever-popular MBTI and how the Keirsey Temperaments are even more illuminating.

    •How nature and nurture work together.

    •The art of gaining self-awareness through self-analysis and observation.


    Self-discovery is how you create the life you want.


    It sounds so simple - and it is. A doctor can’t treat a sickness without understanding what it is, and you can’t hope to find fulfillment without understanding what provides that feeling for you. Self-discovery unlocks the potential of your happiness. .
