Day #2 of Ralph Waldo Emerson Week
“To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.” ~Ralph Waldo Emerson
Are you really yourself? Really? Or are you playing a role that someone else has decided for you? The world around you is constantly trying to make you something other than who you are. How do you deal with that? Or do you just go one playing that role?
What makes you different, or do you try to fit in and NOT stand out? We've always been told to be like everybody else, fit in, don't be different, don't be unique. What a crock! You were created to be unique...Live that uniqueness. Don't back away from it, revel in it.
“Insist on yourself; never imitate. Be original” As much as we like to think of America as a land of individuals, we don't often enough insist on being ourselves. We imitate others, we fit in, we don't rock the boat.
Today, STAND OUT!! When given an opportunity to be yourself, DO IT! And watch the difference it makes
Know. Be Known. Make A Difference!
“To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.”
