“Be yourself. No one can ever tell you that you’re doing it wrong.”

Being your authentic self is never easy. The harsh reality is that people and their opinions are inescapable; and it’s hard not to be, in some way or another, influenced by them. If you’re wondering if this could be you, here’s one simple way to find out.

First, tap into your imagination and imagine that you’re on a deserted island indefinitely. However, you have all the resources and amenities you need to do whatever you want. Next, reflect honestly on the following questions: What would you be like? How would you present yourself in both your disposition and the way you look? What would your ambitions and interests be?

If any of your answers to these questions are incongruent with who you are now, then you might want to ask whether or not you’re truly being yourself.

This quote, author unclear (possibly by Charles M. Schulz or James Leo Herlihy), reminds us that while being yourself is not always easy, no one can ever tell you you’re doing it wrong. Only you know how to be you.
