Often parents, teachers, bosses and others, tell us what we are.
You are an extrovert, you are shy, you are not a people person, you are not good at x or y, you are….
Most often what they are telling us we are is a critical judgement not a positive affirmation.
The voices of others mould and shape us, often to a place that we do not like, to being a person truly we are not. However, it takes a long time to realise this and the longer you accept the view of others, the longer it takes to overcome.
Listen to you view of you, it is one that matters.
Don’t be afraid to speak out and set the boundaries with others, be brave to voice who you really are to the world.
Tell yourself what you really are and be that person regardless of what others say.
It is our life and our choices, make the ones that serve you best.
