Be Yourself

be yourself
“Integrity is being the same person in your house that you are on the street.”

JUST BE YOURSELF! 


Don't struggle with yourself to impress people. I don't mean you should go about with your bad habits all in the name of being yourself. lol .

The world today is driven by first impressions; people see the clothes you wear first, and not your real self and as a result almost all of us are guilty of trying to impress someone at some point.



Being fake to impress a person is a NO NO! 

The people I have the most respect for aren't trying to get my respect. They are just living their lives. Any respect I have is a side-effect, not the purpose of what they do. The society is fueled by marketing(wash finz).

Having the right image, background or establishment can mean better friends, relationships or million dollar business deals.

Not trying to impress people leaves your self-image independent and it is the only route to get genuine respect from people. I think that consistency has a huge effect on your self-image. How can you be comfortable with yourself if you feel the need to impress other people? ehn!

Dress to impress, but to impress yourself. Any time you’re doing things with the goal of boosting yourself, being popular or marketing to others, you should internalize it. Make your goal to impress yourself, not just the people around you.

Striving to impress myself this means setting your appearance, communication style and goals towards what you see as being ideal.

This doesn't mean you ignore all the first impressions advice. It just means that your main goal should be to impress yourself and let other people think what they want.
