Blog: Stop trying to be unique and try being authentic.

Isn’t funny how all families share some common ground when it comes to being dysfunctional, after all, just as Kath Day Night says “you’re only human.”
Mother’s Day started out a lovely venture until my one of my sister made a really crappy comment about my weight. And the part that stings, is why would you even want, to set out to hurt someone. Sometimes our relationships with family members have their ups and downs because that’s the balance of life. We learn to live taking the Ying with the Yang. But we must not care, we must not take things personally. My sister loves me, and I love her, however, I won’t stand for her crap. In fact, I won’t stand for anyone’s crap!
My patents have taught me a great deal in life. Be independent, go out in the world brave and courageous, be myself, trust my instincts and to conquer my dreams. One of the finer lessons in life is being one’s self. An infinite collection of questions and answers, a beautiful road map of growth and discovery with the good times and the hard times.
Staying true blue to yourself also means being brutally honest with yourself, if you want to change. One of my worst habits is time management. And when I deeply look into it, I can see where I fall short with putting my needs in number position, where I’m failing to set free my passions and of course and bloody Schedule wouldn’t go astray.
There are so many arrows to solving your own happiness… if your willing to be the best authentic version of yourself.
You don’t have to be quiet, or still when you want to empower yourself or others. Don’t say next time, or one day, if your vision is clear, create it, baby! Get on to it ASAP.
My best advice to share, so far… Have a sense of humour, laugh at yourself Make others laugh. Share your strengths with others, wisely though, everyone one deserves kindness, however, some appreciate it more than others, so respect yourself and find your balance with others. It’s true the ole, “do no harm, take no shit” When you can spread the love, just do it! You can help others see, that they are worth everything.
Have a healthy internal dialogue, what that essentially means is, all the things you say in your head, all the times you put yourself down and don’t think you can. Change that because you really are what you think. And lastly, embrace change, you are always becoming and changing. Feel it and work with it. All you simply need to be yourself in good company, a backbone, a wishbone and a funny bone. Be your kooky self, it’s your best asset.
