When You Are True To Yourself

by Bright Osadiaye, posted in Personal Development, Personal Growth

No one is going to get things right every day. But if you are not true to yourself, you are not going to be able to get anything done.

When you are true to yourself, you know what is going on in your life. You know what you can do. You know what you cannot do. You know where you are going. And you know what you have to get done to get there.

When you are true to yourself, you do not keep what is not working. Because if it is not happening, it is not happening. If it is not making a difference in your life, it is not making a difference in the world.

That is why you have got to be true to yourself, no matter what. Do not hide behind anything. Come out. Because you are not alone. We are all going through things.

But different things. Not the same things. And they are not going to go away at the same time. So make peace with your life. And peace will follow you.

Why Hope Matters

‘No matter what stage of life you’re at right now, keep reminding yourself that it will get better. Just keep being your bad bitch self, and it will all work out the way it’s supposed to in the end, with you ruling your own life on your own terms and no thought for any of the haters.’– Amber Rose

Go to work for yourself. Go to work for your dreams. And be willing to give more, not less. Just know that not everybody is going to celebrate you when you succeed.

But people will have a lot to say if you do not make it. That is okay. Do not let that bother you. Let them talk. Your work is not to stop them from talking. Your work is to keep going, is to keep making a difference. To keep hope alive.

Is it going to be perfect? No, it is going to be hard. But do not give up. Believe in what you are doing. According to Amber, ‘Everytime you trust yourself, every time you do something scary or hard, you become a little bit stronger.‘ That is how we grow. That is how we make progress.

If you want to make yourself stronger, to prepare yourself for what is next, you have got to be true to yourself. The question is, ‘Are you in it for you?’
