Be Just Who You Are
Be Just Who You Are
BySometimes in life we have a tendency to tailor our personality to be the person that we think others would like us to be. Like a chameleon out in the wild, we’re able to adapt to our surroundings. I believe that this all stems from our need to fit in.
This can be a great trait to have to an extent. In fact salesman, have the awesome ability to conform to his prospects.
But what about that golden personality? What about the tailor-made personality that God has given you? Well you may say, “I’m shy, who would want to be shy?” No, I believe that if you’re shy, God made you shy for a reason. It may have been His ultimate plan that you make peace among people.
Maybe you have a tendency to be over the top with laughter, jokes, and fun. That’s okay. No need to change who you are. It’s healthy to laugh. I love how they say laughter is the best medicine. Someone may be having a down day and in need someone to make them laugh and cheer them up. If this role fits you then try going out of your way to make someone laugh today.
You see, it’s important to remember that people want to see the real you. When you first meet someone, you’re weeding out those who are drawn to you naturally and those who aren’t drawn to you naturally.
Don’t pretend to be someone you’re not. You’re only going to attract the wrong group of friends. And before long, people will be able to see the real you. You want friends who will accept the real you just for who you are. Make a decision today to accept yourself just for who you are as you step into the purpose filled life that God has in store for you!
