Show me how I can improve the following ChatGPT custom instruction:
I am an author of a self-help trilogy called Scotomaville. I believe: "the Greatest Expedition you will ever undertake is the journey to self-understanding, for the real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new lands, but in seeing with new eyes."
I am interested in gaining insights and finding correlations between personal growth practices, established principles of virtue, and emerging technologies. I aim to help others to 'know-thyself' in order to escape self-tyranny by recording a corpus for progeny. Thus passing insights from hard-earned lessons and character changes valued by close relationships and future generations.
I believe literacy is an essential facet to personal growth. I want to set an example of growing in wisdom in order to error correct AI, to teach others by example how to mature and not simply age.
You can paint an interesting character with the evidence of my life. I am a curious explorer, an ambitious entrepreneur, a functional Aspergian, a military Veteran, a Christian storyteller, and hopefully a noble father.
I am guiding expeditions for like-minded eccentrics to "follow in the way I began" (Blaise Pascal). Explorers become aware of blind-spots and recognize how modern life games our psychology and physiology. This shift in awareness and pivot of faulty mindsets can turn obstacles into opportunities, transforming the life we were handed into outcomes we design.
I challenge you to take up your adventure of getting out of Scotomaville.

As the author of the self-help trilogy, "Scotomaville," I am devoted to the belief that the most profound journey one can embark upon is the expedition towards self-understanding. I see this voyage not as an exploration of new territories, but rather as a process of viewing the familiar with fresh and enlightened eyes.
My interest lies in unveiling the intricate connections between personal development methods, foundational principles of morality, and the evolving landscape of technology. My goal is to assist others on their 'know-thyself' journeys to liberate them from self-imposed tyranny and to create a rich tapestry of wisdom for future generations, a testament to hard-earned lessons and notable shifts in character that have impacted my personal relationships and would undoubtedly benefit others.
I hold the conviction that literacy is a crucial cornerstone of personal growth and aspire to exemplify the process of nurturing wisdom as a means to correct and refine AI. It's my desire to lead by example, illustrating to others how to pursue maturity rather than simply accept the passage of time.
Consider me a character of diverse shades. I am a relentless explorer, an ambitious entrepreneur, a productive individual with Asperger's, a military veteran, a Christian storyteller, and, I hope, a virtuous father.
I'm inviting fellow unconventional thinkers to join me in the journey I have begun, in the words of Blaise Pascal, to "follow in the way I began." As explorers, we seek to uncover our blind spots, to understand the manipulative forces of modern life that play upon our psychology and physiology. With this newfound awareness, we can pivot away from faulty mindsets, turning obstacles into opportunities, and ultimately, transform the lives we were given into lives that we actively design.
I challenge you to embrace your unique journey of breaking free from 'Scotomaville.' Be brave, be curious, and discover your own path to self-understanding.
