It’s normal to want to portray a consistent personality to the world so you match others’ expectations of you. But that’s not the authentic you. As a youngster you received praise for certain behavior and then continued to act that way because the approval felt good. But down deep, every time you ignore or repress a sincere impulse in order to please others, you create internal dissonance. This affects your wellbeing. Practice getting in touch with your genuine desires and act in alignment with those. What the world really needs…
Is the real you.
