The Battle To Be Just You

According to Leo Buscaglia, “The hardest battle you’re going to fight is the battle to be just you.” If you can’t be yourself, why are you living? One of the reasons we live is to be able to be ourselves. But we now live in a world where people don’t want us to be ourselves. That is hard to take in.

Listen, my friend, no matter what, it is better to be your own self. Your real self. If you can fight to be yourself, you will always be a happy and positive person. Why is that? Because you are living your real life. You are not hiding anything. You are not trying to be who you are not. You are not trying to live other people’s dreams. You are just you.

Life is all about battles. But the hardest battle is the battle we fight within ourselves. The battle to be free. The battle to think positively. The battle to say something good about ourselves. The battle to fight doubts. The battle to fight our fears. The battle to fight procrastination. The battle to connect with our real selves. These are some of the battles that we fight every day.

You don’t have to be at war with yourself. Don’t go around feeling that something is not right with you. Everything is right with you. There is nothing wrong on the inside of you. You are perfect. You are great. You are beautiful. You are positive.

People are not happy because they don’t like who they are. They don’t like how they look. They don’t like how they talk. They don’t like where they work. They don’t like their hair. They focus on their weaknesses, not their strengths. That is wrong! Don’t be ashamed of yourself. Don’t!

You can change everything. Yes, you can do it. Everything about your life is under your control. Take charge of your life. James Allen said, “Make your every thought, word, and deed sweet and pure.” If you can do that, your life will change. Because if you don’t change how you see yourself, your reality won’t change.

You are not supposed to go through life feeling like a failure. You are not. You are here for greatness. You are here for a reason. You are here to live, not to exist. You are here to multiply, not to die. You are not here to waste your time. You are here to work your time. You are here to live your time.

You can live a beautiful life. To do that, you must stop seeing yourself as a loser. You must quit beating yourself up for useless things. You must quit telling yourself bad things. You must quit focusing on what you don’t have. You must start celebrating your life. You must start treating yourself as a human being.

You must fight to be just yourself, because you can’t separate yourself from you. You can’t. So you must learn to fight just to be your REAL self.

We cannot go through life without experiencing difficult times. We are going to experience more than one difficulties times. Difficult times are always going to be there. They are part of our lives. We cannot do without them.

It is okay to experience difficult times. It is okay to find ourselves in a very deep hole. The question is, “Are we going to keep digging or are we going seek help?” How you answer this question will determine whether you will be able to cope with difficult times or not.

How we handle difficult times is what separate the poor from the rich. It is not what happens to you, it is how you deal with it that counts. It is not what you are going through that matters, it is what you do with what you are going through that matters. It is not where you are today that matters, it is where you are going and what you are learning from where you are that matters. It is not where you have been that counts, it is where you are going that counts. It is not what people have done to you that counts, it is whether you forgive yourself that counts.

When you are going through difficult times, do not worry yourself. Be positive. Be patient. Do not focus on what is going on in your life. Focus on what you are learning from what you are going through. Difficult times are here to teach you a lesson. Be ready to learn from difficult times. Open your heart to learn from them. If you learn from them, you will gain from them.

Barbara De Angelis said, “Difficult times always create opportunities for you to experience more love in your life.” You will see the opportunities in difficult times if you open your heart to them. Remember, a closed mind is a dead mind. If you want to learn from your situation, open your mind.

When you are going through difficult times, do not think about negative things. Think about positive things. It is when your mind is in a positive state that you can go through your difficult times without breaking your back. Always remain positive.

During difficult times, you need to be yourself. Love yourself. Accept yourself. Surround yourself with positive people. Do not be around negative people. They will suck up your energy. You need your positive energy to through your difficult times without breaking your back.

Remember that you can’t get to good times without first going through the bad times. That is what life is all about. Life is a mixture of everything- good times and sad times.

During difficult times, do not beat yourself up. It is not going to last forever. Difficult times are temporary, not permanent. If it is bad now does not mean that it is going to be bad forever. Nothing lasts forever.

What you are going through right now will not last forever. You will last forever. Amen!
