Now this is definitely something I live by! It’s so important to be true to yourself, but yet so many people cannot do this. This causes real unhappiness.
My mother always taught me that I should be honest with myself no matter what (sometimes to her detriment). It’s however not always easy to be true to yourself, because sometimes the truth hurts. To analyse oneself is always a good thing to do every now and then. I do it often and I try my best to be aware of how I am and how I treat others. When I feel that I am slipping or haven’t been too good, I have to be honest with myself and stop myself in my tracks.
Even though being honest with yourself is not always easy to do, it’s the best thing you can do for yourself as an individual. You never have to be anxious or be in distress about who you are and that’s how you find your true happiness as an individual. It’s the best feeling you could ever have! If you lie to yourself you will find that you will be in constant turmoil with yourself, which will make you really unhappy.
Being honest with yourself means you will be comfortable. You will be comfortable being you, just the way you are. Life becomes very easy for you once you can master this skill.
Never lie to yourself. You could fool everybody else around you, except yourself. Be you to and for you.
