Celebrate Being Original, Off The Beaten Track, A Touch Strange, And Your Own Unique Creation
Although owning your truth can be challenging, it is not nearly as difficult as living your entire life in denial of it.
I don't think other people are like me. They prefer the versions of me that I have created for them, the versions of me that they have conjured up in their thoughts, and the versions of me that only contain likeable traits. But I'm not truly like that. It also frightens me. Who is going to appreciate the guy who is constantly doubting himself? The emotional person? Who is the person losing control? the person who runs away from his issues? the one who consistently pushes people away? Who will like my true weaknesses... who will like the real me?
Accepting who you are and having the guts to share it with the world are both characteristics of being vulnerable. To show up as the authentic YOU and to be open and accepting of however the outside world reacts, rather than as the person you believe you should be or the person you want people to perceive you to be. It carries some risk, but it's nothing compared to the danger of giving up on the valuable experiences that make us the most vulnerable—true love, honesty, and acceptance. We won't be able to unlock the potential of our inner light until we have the courage to venture into our darkest recesses.
So please keep in mind that below all of your external decorations, you are a pure, beautiful human, regardless of your age, race, or sexual orientation. You have tasks to do and missions to carry out. Celebrate being unique, off the beaten track, a little strange, and your own unique creation. Find a different stream to swim in if you start to feel like a fish out of water. But rather than denying yourself, embrace it!
In a world that tries to mould your every action, be YOU.
If the unbeaten path feels comfortable under your feet, take it.
Don't just be there.
We are all here. Is it true that you are alive?
Be true to yourself. Learn from it.
PLUS, LIVE!
Experience is the best teacher. Discover from others. Continue to be teachable, receptive, and modest. Embrace the situation and let it all soak in. To increase your comfort zone and gain a bit more confidence each day, push yourself to the limit.
Believe in your own potential and success. When faced with a choice between two worthwhile courses, trust your gut. Have faith that the solutions are waiting to be found. Have faith that life will continue to amaze you. Consider the trip to be the final destination. Have faith that it's all worthwhile. Have faith that you have the courage to complete it.
The predominate ideas we hold in our minds magnetize our brains, and by processes, no man is aware of, these "magnets" entice to us the forces, people, and circumstances of life that are congruent with the nature of our predominate ideas.
The tendency to judge everything and everyone according to one's own impressions and opinions is another flaw that far too many individuals share. Some people who read this might think that it's impossible to visualize big and create an abundance of wealth. Since their cognitive patterns have been shaped by poverty, lack, unhappiness, failure, and defeat, they are unable to consider in terms of wealth.
Before we can amass wealth in large quantities, we must magnetize our minds with a strong desire for wealth. To do this, we must become "money conscious," and this desire for money must then motivate us to make specific plans for amassing wealth.
Everyone who reaches the age at which they can comprehend the function of money wishes they had some. Wishing won't make you rich. Riches will come from wanting money so badly that it becomes an obsession, from preparing specific ways to get money, from implementing those plans with tenacity and disregard for failure, and from following through.
