We all want to feel accepted and loved for who we are with our friends, family, in our career and community.
And yet we may find ourselves at times acting, behaving, speaking, and being in a certain way to please others that are not authentic to who we truly are.
5 ways for living an authentic life
- Tell someone you appreciate them every day.
- Stop trying to win the Oscar.
- Get rid of the baggage.
- Meditate.
- Stay connected with genuine friends

The Cliff Notes:
- As a collective and society, we are going through an awakening.
- In finding this awakening, many find that they no longer want to act a certain way just to please others.
- It may feel scary to break out and be yourself because of cultural and social norms.
- Humans appear to be evolving on a spiritual plane more rapidly than in our physical and emotional development.
- School systems are not preparing people for the world we live in today.
- We seek to love and attention-based to what we formulated will allow the other person to like us.
- You don’t need to change everything about how you operate, instead, do little experiments on how you show up.
- Start experimenting by sharing something you wouldn’t normally share and notice how people respond positively to your vulnerability.
- Relationships are the most important thing on the planet and your relationship with yourself is the most important.
- What other people think about me is not as important as what I think about myself.
- It all starts with what you’re willing to accept about yourself, and what you’re willing to accept about yourself is everything.
- You can’t fill somebody else’s cup without filling up your own.
- Anything you can’t accept is where you’re going to be blaming and shaming other people.
- It may be possible through future technology and understanding for spiritual awakening to be hacked or shortcut.
- We are responsible for ourselves.
- If we can learn to love each other regardless of age, race, gender… then we’ve reached a level where we can move on to solving issues of a higher level.
- Humans are not designed for obedience or meant to be led, they’re supposed to be self-governed.
- Anything you feel like you have ownership over, in the short or long run, will create upset for you.
- The only way to be selfless is to be selfish because it starts with you.
- Begin by choosing who you are and loving that regardless of what others think.
