Are You True To Yourself?

The question is, ‘Are you really true to yourself?’ Are you? Are you living your own life? Or are you trying to be like the next person? Are you chasing your dreams? Or are you doing something that other people are doing? Are you trying to fit in? Or are you working really hard to improve yourself?

Life is tough enough. If you are going to be yourself, to be true to yourself, you have got to have a thick skin. You have got to be willing to stand alone. You are not going to live like other people, work like other people. You are going to be you, no matter what.

You are true to yourself when you are not ashamed of your past. In fact, you are proud of your past failures. They made you who you are today. Without your past learning moments, you wouldn’t be where you are now. So celebrate your past, not reject it.

‘Failures are learning moments.’

You are true to yourself when you know that you are not going to be perfect, that you are not going to get everything right, that you are going to make mistakes, and that you will learn from your mistakes.

You are true to yourself when you do the things that make you happy, the things that bring joy into your life.

You are true to yourself when you have the courage to look yourself in the mirror and say, ‘I love who I am.’

Do Something About It

Where are you right now in your life? Wherever you are, embrace it. That is where you are supposed to be.

It is for you. Whatever is going on there, it is working for you, not against you.

Be there to live it, to experience it. Stop talking about what is not working. Because talk is just talk. It can’t change anything. Instead, it makes them worse.

So if you really want to make a difference in your life, you have to start taking actions.

You have got to start doing, not talking. You have got to start doing, not thinking.

If you do not like what is going on in your life, you have got to do something about it. Do not blame it on anybody.

If you are not happy with your work, you have got to change how you do your work.

Remember, if you do not change, nothing is going to change.
