“Just be yourself” - this advice in various variations often sounds from the lips of both psychologists and ordinary people. Indeed, it is difficult to find happiness by embodying other people's ideals and dreams. However, in order to fulfill this recommendation, self-improvement and work on oneself are necessary.
Why it's important to be yourself
The individuality of the personality is how it differs from others, the similarity with the others makes a person faceless part of the crowd. Being yourself means focusing on your individual qualities and unique characteristics.
Always being yourself, you reduce the likelihood of depression arising from torture to impress people who are indifferent to you. By adjusting to others, you devalue yourself.
Being yourself, you are a mystery to others. People are drawn to extraordinary personalities, take an example from them.
The life of an outstanding person is full of surprises and surprises. Having the courage to be yourself, a person chooses a rich life full of adventure and new experiences.
One of the most important reasons to always remain yourself is that it is a manifestation of self-love. If you wear a mask and pretend to be a different person, then you do not accept yourself, and the consequence of this is the inability to love another person.
However, the possibility of being yourself implies some difficulties that may not be given to everyone to overcome. An extraordinary person is always responsible for his actions, it is vulnerable due to the fact that not everyone understands it. Albert Einstein, who was a unique person himself, said: “Great souls always encounter violent opposition from mediocre minds. The mediocre mind is not able to understand a person who refuses to blindly worship prejudice, and instead courageously and honestly expresses his opinion.”
