Your authentic self

Questions about our authentic self are common in our lives. Others constantly want to know who we are. This occurs when we meet strangers, attend a job interview, or join an organization. We spend undeterminable hours creating an image of what we want others to see us as. After awhile we lose sight of who we really are as we expend valuable energy projecting those false images. Then we spend millions of dollars on therapy and self-help books trying to reclaim our true self. It is time to seek out our authentic selves in terms of our beliefs, our values, and our purpose in life. As we do so, we find ourselves leading happier and more fulfilling lives. Where are you in knowing and accepting who you are?
