Why is it so important to be YOUR AUTHENTIC SELF?

Almost all of us would love to live a life which is true to who we are.

Most people would like to be as authentic as possible.

But a lack of self-confidence, pressure to conform to social standards and fear of not being able to meet other people’s expectations can stop us from being true to ourselves.

That's why, sometimes we end up leading lives which feel a little off.

Maybe deep inside, you say to yourself:

- This is not who I am...

- I’m not living the life I was meant to live...

- Maybe I’m too weak to live honestly?

- How do I really want to live my life?

It’s important to understand that authenticity is not a quality.

It’s a CHOICE which reflects how we want to live.

You can ask what is an AUTHENTIC SELF?

Your authentic self is who you truly are as a person.

To be authentic means:

-TO BE HONEST WITH YOURSELF

-ACCEPT BEING IMPERFECT

-EMBRACE YOUR VULNERABILITY

-LOVE YOURSELF AS YOU ARE

-NOT CARE WHAT OTHERS THINK ABOUT YOU

I can tell from my own experience it has never helped me, to act as though I was something that I am not. Never!!!

I don’t try to impress anymore.

I’ve noticed that I’m also more effective when I can be myself!

I’m not susceptible anymore to people’s judgements and opinions.

People accept and like me for who I really am.

I’ve realized when I accept myself as I am, then I change.

Accepting my flaws and imperfections, not comparing myself with others feels so liberating. It literally sets you free. It makes you feel stronger, more confident… IT MAKES YOU FEEL ENOUGH!
