How to Be Yourself

Be yourself. I’ve lost count how many times I’ve heard this phrase in the movies, songs and books I’ve encountered. And I have to admit I never really understood what it meant all this time. Until recently.
There’s more to this phrase than what you think. Sure, you know yourself better than any other person. You know what you like and dislike, you understand your feelings, and you can most probably say that you are your own best friend.
Yet why do you still frown when you see the mirror. Why do you keep comparing yourself to other people? Why do you fail to see your strengths as a person?
This is the moment where you are actually being far from yourself. You are not being you. You are being what others expect you to be. You are living up to other’s expectations, not yours. And thus, you feel discontented, unhappy and emotionally weak. More
Be yourself, and follow your passion
Be yourself, no matter who you face
Be yourself, and tune in to your feelings
Be yourself, and trust your intuition
