How do you make yourself to be yourself, not someone else?

I tell myself and people who care to listen at times, "you can be who you want to be".

You are the best version of yourself, any other "you" is a counterfeit. Trying to be someone else is insulting yourself. It means you feel incapable, less loved, less beautiful or less whatever you see in the other person you are trying to be.

It is good to have role models, who you look up to, but never should you look down on yourself because you feel they are better than you.

You are the best.

You are different.

You are unique.

And there is no one better than you, you just have to believe that.

Now, to make yourself to be yourself and not someone else, according to your question, you need to engage in rigorous positive affirmations.

Meditate on the positive things about yourself.

Shun every negative word that tries to spring up.

Use the negativity to build on yourself and tell yourself that, you probably have this or that negative side because you have a mission to help others like you.

There is a place for you at the top and you have to be willing to get there. Be willing to fight. Say NO to negativity and YES to positivity. Don't let anything weigh you down. Stop looking down on yourself and anytime negativity knocks at the door of your heart, send positivity to go open the door and you will see it disappear.

Remember, darkness cannot stand when light enters a place. You are the light. Go forth and shine.

Cheers, JI.
