BE YOURSELF

All of us have looked at others and wished we could be like them. We wished we could have what they have. But you can’t be someone else. You are you. You are unique and have your own talents and experiences. You can use those talents and experiences to get what you want, but you shouldn’t sacrifice yourself to do so. Many of us also act like someone we are not. Whether you did it to impress a love interest, your boss, or someone else, we have all not been ourselves because we believed it would get us what we wanted. But when you are not yourself, you change. You change who you are and what you are about. You change your thoughts and beliefs and you become someone who tries to please others instead of pleasing yourself. You become someone else instead of being yourself. Being yourself means you like who you are. Being yourself means living life how you want to live it, regardless of other people's opinions. And it means you respect yourself. Don't worry about what others think. You can't control them or their thoughts. Don’t worry about what others think. You can’t control them or their thoughts. If you like who you are, then that is all that matters. Don’t allow others to change who you are. You are being judged regardless of what you do, so being yourself makes happiness easier to obtain. Live life on your terms, not someone else’s. 6 Steps to Discover Your True Self - Be quiet.
