You know, how to be the most beautiful and elegant person in a room?
By being 'yourself'.
The moment you pretend to be someone else that you are not, you loose your charm.
Being yourself and stand by your authenticity is very rare nowadays and we have to practice daily of letting go of the layers we form on ourselves which doesn't belong to us.
As Bhagavad gita states that, " It is better to Live your own destiny imperfectly than to Live an imitation of somebody else's life with perfection"
There are people constantly telling you , to behave in a certain way, think in a certain way. And they are in a constant attempt to change you, change your authentic self. And the worst part is, most of the time they succeed.
Not only our behaviour, but our dreams also got blended by what we listen, or read.
Remember, in childhood we tend to demand the same toy or stationary our friends brought even when we didn't know the use of it.
If we look around we find many people doing things, without knowing about why they are Doing it.
Not only dreams but our values are got influenced.
Here I am not stating that you shouldn't grow yourself or should not change yourself for the betterment. But change in a way that your authentic self become a better version not a changed one.
The foremost step in the process of protecting your authenticity is ; To know the 'core nature of yourself' , the real you ( you can visit the previous blog to read this in detail.)
Because when you know yourself and respect your authentic self, what others say matter less.
The second step ; is to surround yourself with people, who First accepts you as the way you are and helps in becoming your better authentic version.
And the most important thing is, the end choice of , what new thing you want to inculcate in yourself should be yours, not by the influence of People.
Always remember " you are not what others think who are you, not even what you think what other think who are you, but you are what you think who are you".
So yeah people, go and embrace your authenticity!!

Felt real great after reading you. In the contempory world when all we do is try to impress every possible being, we tends to forget that we as a individual exist a midst a lot. It is hard to recognize our own identity masquerading among the multiple ourself, but the route to happiness and gratitude began from the point when we able to capture our true self in most meaningful way
