25 Quotes on Why Being Yourself is The Best Gift You Can Give the World
1. To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment. – Ralph Waldo Emerson
Most people aren’t who they think they are, they are an amalgamation of what others think they should be. Without taking the time to find out who we are we miss who we could be, what we could become and achieve.
It’s easy to bury our desires and write them off as fantasies and dreams when all the time, we could be turning them into goals and achievements. Be true to yourself, follow your dreams even if others are telling you that you can’t. You know deep down what is going to make you happy and fulfilled.
Be yourself, and make it happen for you.

Discover what makes you come alive, what makes your heart sing, what makes you want to jump out of bed in the morning to get started on the day, then do it, do it every day.
