it was kind of a tongue twister thinking out loud. i can’t tell you how many times i have heard the phrase: “fake it ’til you make it” which is total bullshit. how can you pretend to be something or someone you are not and feel good about it?
YOU CAN’T
i became very authentic many years ago and although i have lost so much since then, i still think it was the best for my sanity. i don’t believe i should have to hide in order to satisfy the public or others and neither should you. we all have a purpose on this earth and even if you have not found that purpose, you still identify with who you believe to be. now that being said, there are certain people in this world whom would be still confused on this subject and although i am an unconditional person, accepting all for who they are and what they represent, people go out of their way to make a point when trying to get the attention of others.
my mastering the art of being unconditional comes at a cost because deep down there are certain times when people make want to slap them, shove them right back into their right mind but alas, that will not happen.
i used to be in the public eye, surrounded by many individuals who thought, the concept of “faking it ’til you make it” was the key to success. i now see that was the wrong impression you want to give because either way, i lost in the end. not only by my own actions but by the selfishness of others.
i also feel that trying to make an impression on others is a waste of time because in the end, they don’t really care about your well being but rather by their own ambitions do they pursue that climbing to the top scenerio.
so i ask you: would you rather fake it or be the person you are and live with the consequences?
don’t forget: be unconditional
