When we let go of what we believe that we need to be, we give ourselves the room to grow into who we really are.
In our modern world, we have a tendency as human beings to suspect that we always need to be something more. We have to be prettier, funnier, richer and everything else in between. But all of these things that we think we really have to be stop us from really expressing who we are deep down inside. We constantly evaluate ourselves against others and create false masks for ourselves so friends and family will like us more. Thing is, after a short while, these masks always fall off and people end up seeing us for our true selves anyhow.
It's a whole lot less complicated, and far more fun when you actually do it, to be precisely who you are without any apologies.
This isn't to claim that you shouldn't target to enhance your life. Nevertheless if you really are going to go down the journey of personal development and deepening, you have got to really focus on doing it for yourself. In truth, that truly is the only way that viable change comes to be. When you start to develop for other people or because someone just told you to do it, you don't really end up believing in what you're doing. Rather, development becomes something that you finally cross off a list a lifetime journey.
Be incredibly thankful for what you have at the moment and who you are and if you happen to be looking to take an excursion that could change you for the better, then develop for yourself. Develop as you know that it's the right thing to do and that it will make a better future for yourself.
In the end, if we stay true to our own paths and believe in ourselves, we are truly capable of anything.
