“To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.” Ralph Waldo Emerson. And to be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you into something else requires you to know who you are, accept who you are and love who you are. Warts and all. Imagine this…even with all your faults, all your problems, all the things you do and say wrong, you are still wonderful.
That combination of genius (that you never acknowledge), brilliance (that you never acknowledge) and mess (which you give way too much importance to) makes up the unique creation that is you. In order to be yourself, you need to be the one part of the world that isn’t trying to make you be something different. Be yourself – your real self, with your creativity, your passion, your joy, your grumpiness, your impatience. Be all of you…and that will be your greatest accomplishment.
