I just want to be me!

Why can’t I just be myself?

Okay…so my first of the month reality check’s are getting later and later! Sorry I have been a wee bit busy lately.

This month I want to focus on YOU…the real YOU!  Are you yourself? Do you act, speak and live authentically?  Why do so many of us feel the need to “keep us with the Jones’s”, to be people pleases, feel responsible for other’s feelings or feel that we must act in certain ways to “fit in”. Do you find yourself in positions where you know that you are not being true to yourself? Do you make some decisions based on other’s feelings and not your own? Do you say/do one thing but honestly deep down think another?

When are you being true to yourself????

I am so confused…..Who am I??????????

I realise that I am often confused about who I “really” am. I find myself always coming up with the same question….. how do I know the real me?? Would I even know it if I was staring at it in the mirror or if it slapped me in the face?  How do I know if what I am feeling/thinking/doing is fear, ego or the real me?

Where is the real me???

Where is the real me??

At some stage in our life most of us will feel the need to rediscover who we really are.  We feel a little lost and unsure of what our true self is and what we really want from life. To me, this is only natural as we spend so many years pleasing others and conforming out of necessity. Then, at some point we wake up and we say to ourselves “Who is the real me, what do I really like, what are my goals, and where do I see myself in years to come?” The journey to find our true selves is by no means an easy feat……..we have spent so many years conforming and compromising that this challenge is a hard nut to crack.

Who are you????

I just don't know who I am anymore????

Have you lost sight of who you are?  Over the years we change to suit others, change to fit into family; school; friendships clicks; work; groups etc. Do you ever feel that you have lost pieces of yourself?
