There is a quote that says:
"Character is who you are when no one is watching."
If only we could take that to heart.
So much energy is wasted by some of us trying to be what we think others want us to be. Instead,
Be Yourself.
When you look at yourself in the mirror, do you like what you see?
The reflecting glass doesn't lie. But the outward appearance isn't all we are about. Look deeper. It is said that the eyes are the windows to the soul. Inside, we house the important stuff.
What we believe. How we act.
No one likes an impostor. So,
Be Yourself.
The qualities and traits that make each of us distinct individuals, set aside from others, is what makes this an interesting and fascinating world to live in. Only by being different can we make a difference.
So why do some try so hard to be like others?
Insecurity, Fear & Anxiety are just a few reasons.
Or it could be Competition, Jealousy and Deception. These are not issues that should be taken lightly; they should be addressed.
Remember, you don't need to keep up or measure up to anyone.
Life is not a comparison competition.
Hey, it takes guts to
Be Yourself.
In order to love others, we must first love ourselves; Flaws, idiosyncrasies and all. If you are comfortable with who you are, you care little about what others think. That is not to say you are inconsiderate or have less regard for others. Just devoted.
To your own beliefs.
In the words of Shakespeare:
"...to thine own self be true."
Then the layers of expectations you perceive the world holds above your head vanish.
All that energy spent creating a delusion is released.
Be Yourself.
And others will see that in you.
