Authenticity is something so natural for us yet so difficult! Why do we struggle to be authentic?
Is it the worry about the social mirror – what others think of us?
Not being comfortable with who we really are?
Worrying about being vulnerable?
Not being able to play games because people know us well?
All these excuses take away our creativity, energy and natural gifts.
People who really connect with others and make a significant dfifference are the ones who are authentic – natural, poised, spontaneous. They are comfortable in their own skin and are not worried about their limitations. They are people who still work on their shortcomings, but they come from a position of abundance and strength, not weakness. They come from a place of love, not fear. They are able to leave their past conditioning behind and move forward with grace and confidence.
How about you? Do you strive for authenticity?
