Be Your Own Label

How often do you wake up with ideas in mind for what you want to accomplish, but you find yourself doing something else because of social pressures or personal misery and then you fail to achieve your goals?                                                How many times each day do you wish to say something but you’re scared to voice out because of what others might think?                             Do you dress the way you want to dress or you dress the way others are dressed?                                                  Do you do the things you love or do you follow the mob?                               Are you working the job of your dreams or someone else’s dreams?    It’s time for you to be true to yourself, give up on what others might say or think about you, give up on the things that don’t add value to your life or show the real you. You really need to know who you are and what you want, you need to be you. You shouldn’t let anyone dictate how you live your life, don’t give them the key to your life so they can control you.

 Don’t lose yourself trying to be like others because it’s not worth it. Embrace every spontaneous moment to be you. Don’t worry about how to fit in or blend into the crowd, it’s not needed. The crowd you’re trying to please isn’t offering you anything, but on the other hand, remember you have so much to offer the crowd. Don’t be what others want you to be, you shouldn’t try to please others by living a fake life. 

You shouldn’t do it because everyone is doing it, do it because you want to do it and remember that what works for others won’t work for you, always learn to stand out. It’s easy to follow the herd and give in to peer pressure, it’s a lot more difficult to strike out on your own and truly be yourself. Being true to yourself is the greatest gift you can give to yourself. You cannot live a brave life without disappointing some people. 

We actually ignore the great things we carry because we are busy focusing on what is not. Be real and let people love the real you and remember some will love you for you, some will love you for what you can do for them, some won’t like you at all and they won’t hide it. Don’t be stuck with people that don’t want you, don’t value you or value what you want. Learn to stand out, be your own label and be brave.

“Being yourself means shedding all layers of looking good, wanting to be liked,being scared to stand out and trying to be who you think people want you to be. Being yourself means being naked, raw and vulnerable.”                                           -Jeff Moore
