BEING WHO YOU ARE

been thinking a lot about self-awareness lately and what makes me “me.” I’m always trying to figure out how to transform my inner critic to real personal growth without shame. being honest and not editing myself to any given room was one of the first things I began to tackle in therapy. existing among other humans is an ongoing give and take, and Being Who You Are without apology while treating others with respect is really all you need to do in this life. learning how to be kind and true, and finding the good amongst so much bad and then sharing it with others makes the world go ‘round

focusing on being disliked by the right people instead of wanting to be liked by everyone

i often find myself wanting to be universally liked before i remember that actually, not only are there certain kinds of people that i don’t care about the opinions of, there are certain kinds of people who i actually *want* to dislike and resent me and i would be deeply uncomfortable being admired by. when you’re expressing a part of yourself that you’re afraid might make people dislike you, consider: what is the sort of person who would dislike me because of this? would i want to associate with that kind of person? very occasionally the answer might be yes, but often you’ll find that as soon as you concretely imagine the sort of person who is alienated by you (or unconventional trait X), you will find that it’s the sort of person you don’t want to associate with anyways! “be yourself” is not just good advice because it’s personally comforting - it’s also good advice because being yourself is a good way to filter out people from your life who aren’t ready for what you’re bringing to the table. stop thinking “do they wanna hang out with me” and start thinking “do i wanna hang out with them”

Being radically honest with yourself

It really only matters that you are radically honest with yourself. It’s actually for your own benefit that you are not radically honest with everyone else. Being radically honest with yourself means you go deep and deeper until you get to the core in truth of why you are feeling the way that you are feeling. It’s really easy to get stuck in confusion and unsureness if we are keeping things surface level. A lot of the time the things that are true to how I’m feeling I feel silly about, so they are buried a little deeper. I love the feeling of speaking the truth to myself and feeling it all unlock and make sense. Everything becomes clear. It all calms. Now, I can take action in a grounded and thoughtful way. Dare I say, in the most loving way possible for myself and others…
