Be the real you.

DON'T WISH YOU WERE SOMEONE ELSE, WISH YOU ARE YOUR REAL SELF.

It is natural to experience some moments of self-doubt, fear, and lack of requisite skills to scale through some hurdles, and attain certain heights, we therefore tend towards envying other people's achievements and personality. We may find ourselves comparing our lives, successes, or appearance to those of others and wish that we were more like them. However, this type of thinking can prevent us from reaching our full potential and hinder our personal growth.

Instead of wishing to be someone else, it is important to focus on becoming our real selves. This means accepting ourselves for who we are and working towards personal development and growth. We all have unique qualities, strengths, and weaknesses that make us who we are, and accepting ourselves as individuals is essential to our happiness and success. There are no options to who and what you should be but who you already are, you only need to be a better you.

Wishing to be someone else can lead to negative thinking patterns and self-criticism. It is important to shift the focus towards personal growth instead. This can involve setting attainable goals, celebrating individual victories, and working on improving areas of weakness. Becoming our real selves requires self-reflection and acceptance. This means acknowledging our flaws and making changes to improve them, while also celebrating our strengths and unique qualities. It is through this process of self-acceptance and growth that we can reach our full potential and lead fulfilling lives.

Your true self is the you that you have allowed to grow through troubles, challenges, and difficulties; it is the you that never gives up irrespective of what comes your way; it is the you that always look forward into the future, and never takes personal development, and self growth lightly. Never stop working on yourself until you are the best you.
