My message of encouragement #5 - Being a real reflection of yourself:
Whatever you believe or think about yourself on the inside is what you will manifest on the outside. In other words, whatever you think of yourself will be a reflection of yourself & how others see you. However, there's a flip side as to how you portray yourself in public. I can't stress this enough, but it is very important to be who you are & remain who you truly are. Why? Because if you think or make judgements of yourself based off of what others think of you, you will then become what others think of you & it will ultimately change what you think of yourself in the end. That is not what makes you who you are. Understand that what other people think of you is none of your business. You can't go far in life if you're always turning around to see what other people believe or think of you. You will never become who you are or who you want to be if you keep blaming everyone else for who you are as a person. You should not change for anyone, no matter what they say, think or believe of you. They don't live your life & they don't walk in the same shoes that you do. You are someone who is unique & set aside from everyone else. Nobody can be the same exact person as you are. So I suggest that you highlight your own identity as to who you are as a person. Project your real image in front of the world rather than projecting your image in a fake manner. Why? Well because people always give credit to those who always behave & act like their actual self without being influenced by others, & you should be given credit as well. Now, you may be thinking, "What can I do so that others give me credit for being myself?" Well, here's how -- be yourself by making your own decisions, thinking your own thoughts, dreams, goals & accomplishments. Accept your flaws, as well as your mistakes -- learn from them & live at your own pace. If you do these things, you will always find yourself & know who you truly are as a person. Furthermore, people will respect you.
As hard as it may be for some of you to be yourselves -- just remember that the goal here is to avoid changing yourself for others. Do not fall into being someone you're not. Don't let people change you or how you see yourself. You're amazing in your own ways & you are unique because no one can think or act like you. So just be you. Those who truly respect & like you would love to see you the way you really are, so let others accept the real you no matter how imperfect you are. Others ought to accept you the way you are rather than basing your judgement off the opinion of others. Lastly, I want you to remember that tomorrow is a blank page, just waiting to be filled with your dreams & accomplishments. All you have to do is be yourself & live the story of your own unique life. Be proud, confident & most of all, be happy with yourself. If I can do it, so can you.
