1.
Be loud.
Demand attention. Demand the truth and nothing but the truth.
But know that you are the only one listening to it since everything around you is deaf. But be loud.

2.
Get a polished mirror.
And look at it every day and every night. See the beauty you are looking at but know that it does not feel the same looking back at you.

3.
Get a rope.
Do not hang it to the ceiling or the fan. But instead tie it to a tree where every leaf is a memory of your past so if you ever get lost, trace your way back to your roots to know where you came from.

4.
Do not fly, but - walk.
Walk but don't stop. Because when you stop, you will be tempted to stay there.
Walk but don't run. Because when you run, you are sure to miss out on a lot.

5.
Learn to wait.

*********
Follow these steps carefully and cautiously and you'll find yourself a human being.
