Bettering Yourself – Week 32 – Aug 5 – 11, 2013 To be completely authentic

You know what you know
You know what you know

 

Be who you are and say what you feel
because those who mind don’t matter
and those who matter don’t mind.

This quote was said by Dr Seuss (Theodor Giesel) my favorite children’s author, but probably originated with Bernard Baruch, FDR’s advisor

I love this quote, and it is my inspiration for this week’s bettering yourself exercise.

Sometimes I don’t listen to my true self and do what is in my heart, but am trying to meet other people’s expectations instead.  For this week’s exercise, I am going to be my authentic self, and I will let you know how it goes next week.
