Today, I want you to work on being exactly who you are. I know you have a ton of things to accomplish today, yet this is the most important thing that you can do for you and for the people you are around. There is no greater way to serve a purpose than to be exactly who you were made to be. Let me share this quick story with you to explain why.
You see, I was having a discussion with some other business owners about how fabulous it is to be working with amazing clients. Everyone wants to work with amazing clients. It doesn’t matter if you are a business owner or an anonymous corporate worker bee hidden deep inside the largest cubicle farm in the world. I mean who wouldn’t want to have clients or customers that were friendly, appreciative and enthusiastic about the service or product you provide.
Of courses there was a relatively newer business person who asked how do you find these wonderful amazing energetic clients who are happily telling their friends and family about the great things you do? One person responded with advice to the effect of if you aren’t careful, you’ll have prospects say they don’t want to work with you if you show too much of your true self up front.
I totally disagree! This isn’t just for business. This is for life in general. Today, I want you to be yourself. Today, I want to you be your authentic self. I’m not saying throw professionalism out the window. You are a professional. I’m not saying throw tack to decorum off the ledge. You are a tactful and respectful person. I’m saying, don’t loose you. Don’t loose the most attractive, unique things that make you unlike anyone else who has ever lived in this entire planet, trying to be a people pleaser. Here are 3 great reasons to be yourself today.
1. Some People Will Love The Real You
Your most authentic, most powerful, most purposeful self is someone that people are waiting for. There are people looking for you to be exactly who you are. You are beautifully and wonderfully made. Your creator made not one mistake in building and crafting you with omnipotent love and care. Your owner’s manual is build in. Today, begin to follow those purposeful instincts. Trust that authentic intuition to guide and direct what you think, say and do. If you don’t, know one else can or ever will be you. A great reason to be yourself today is that you find out there are people who love exactly who you are and are happy to allow you to be that person.
2. Some People Will Not Care For The Real You
The point this well intentioned business person was making about scaring away customers is a bit of advice that gets tossed around quite a bit. When you are working for an organization, you are responsible for representing that organization in the way it wants to be represented. If that representation does not suit who you are, the best response is not changing who you are. The most powerful purposeful response is to begin the search for a space where who you are is exactly what is needed. Start the journey today. If your friends, or your family , or your neighbors, or your classmates, or who ever it is does not care for you to be exactly who you are, let them. The only reason you would not fit into that particular space with particular people, is because there is a better, more suitable space waiting for you to be bold enough to step out and find it. You don’t have to start deleting names out of your cell phone. Just start making choices today about how much time you allow yourself to be around people who do not care for the real you. You may as well accept that fact and start moving to find people who will accept your truest self for exactly who you are. They are out there. AND they think you are marvelous because your most powerful purposeful self is truly a marvelous you!
3. You Are More Powerful And Purposeful As The Real You
That really is the best reason to be yourself today. You are a better you than anyone else could ever hope to be. You have a life purpose that is as unique as your fingerprint. No one else can fill that role the way you can. The world is waiting for your particular brand of special to shine its light. Isn’t it wonderful to know that you being exactly who you are is the best way to help others? What’s even better is by being yourself, you get to be happier. You get to be filled with unspeakable joy. You get to love you. You get to feel accepting of all that you are and all that you are not. So today, I want you to be yourself. Without exception, without apology, and without delay!
