The Power of Being Who You Really Are

The Power of Being Who You Really Are

Sometimes we forget who we really are. So much of our lives get caught up in playing roles. We feel obliged to conform to the demands of our work, our families, society and eventually we begin to lose our deeper sense of identity. You know when this is happening because you become more stressed. You forget how capable you are. You close your eyes to your abilities. You abandon your potential. That’s why so many people take the inevitable setbacks so seriously and abandon their dreams and goals. They deny their true potential. They slip into an old, redundant role of pretending to be incapable.

But today is the perfect day for remembering who you really are. A perfect day to feel the power within you, to let go of your fears, release the past, let your deeper sense of self bubble up to the surface. And feel the power, the creativity and your natural ability to make a positive difference to the world around you. Feel the determination and the inner strength that tell you that you will make it. Know it in your heart and it shall be so.
