Being Yourself Is The Best Thing You Can Wear

Posted on by

Today, I was having a conversation with myself and usually I have conversations with myself from time to time when I am busy with cleaning the house, cooking, doing laundry, and just taking time for myself and discovering new things, new thoughts about myself, and I came to a discovery about something very clever and something to think about. I have always told people to always be themselves, and there is nothing better than being who you are and not being somebody you aren’t.There is nothing in the world more rewarding than that. People sometimes get distracted, discouraged to being who they are and things happen in life to them that make them feel that being ones self is something they don’t want to do because of something they have been through, a traumatic experience, but let me assure you, being yourself is something that you should only possess. If you possess anybody else personality, then where do you stand in the world? You were born to stand out and lead. If you keep on being like everybody else, then there is nothing new to see.

Don’t try so hard to fit in, don’t try so hard to impress others. Look in the mirror everyday and smile. Say I am me, I am who I am, and I came to this world like this and I am proud and happy of me. Don’t let others dictate your life and who you are, don’t let others tell you what to be, don’t let others make your life decisions for you, don’t let others pressure you into doing things you do not want to do. We all have a voice, we all have a choice, but being yourself should always be your first and only choice. Have people in your life that will appreciate you for you, and have people in your life that will support you and your decisions, who will back you up, who will guide you through, but at the same time not keep telling you what to do. You can only do so much for people, but in the end everyone has their own lives to live. Some people may take longer than others to adapt into society, some people may take longer or shorter time to do things, and to get things going in life, but in the end you are you, and everyone has their own journey of life. You have to be patient with people. Sometimes you may not know the path they are walking and what they have been through to get to those paths and walking in their shoes.

It is easy to talk and put so many things in other people’s minds and tell them and advise them, but sometimes you have to let someone discover things on their own. You can only tell someone so much, but then after the ball is in their court and its up to them how they want to control that field, but always be yourself in the process, and always dress for success. When you are yourself, when you are honest, and don’t lie to yourself or anybody else, that is the best way to dress for life. Dressing to be yourself is the best outfit you can ever wear more than anything else in the world.

Today, I came with a new twist on this topic and I was also thinking about a movie I watched with Hillary Duff, Regina King, and a few other actors in the movie, but I forgot what the movie was called. Anyway, when at the end of the movie Hillary Duff asked her friend, what are you wearing today? Her friend said, Myself. That was something that has been on my mind today and I decided to write about it today. It is true what was said is to always wear who you are 24/7 365 days a year and never letting negative influence deter you away from who you are. So I had a conversation similar to the movie I watched last night. It goes a little something like this:

Person #1: What are you dressed as today?
Person #2: Myself
Person #1: Well, that is the best thing you can wear.
Person #2: There is nothing better than being myself
Person #1: I totally agree. I really like that look on you.
Person #2: Thanks. I will wear it everyday 24/7 365 days a year.

I really believe in that and so should everybody else. Be yourself, and you will see the difference the world makes. Smile, be happy with you and don’t try to be someone you aren’t. All the best to you.

  2. Thank you for following my blog and thank you for your inspirational posts. I’ve been sitting here reading them and have had quite a few “aha” moments. It couldn’t have come at a better time 🙂

  3. It is so very true that “being yourself in the best thing you can wear!” When we are the authentic selves we were made to be and have become, we can make the most positive impact in this world. Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts! Cate Pane

  6. I believe in that too. By having such thoughts and realisation makes us or someone constantly grounded to who we really are at the end of the day. Making each thoughts as an additional reference to life. Thanks for sharing!

  8. Wonderful words of advice. We get so entangled sometimes trying to be someone we are not. We all need to stop the merry-go-round and stop pretending and worrying. Life is too short.

  9. Positive thoughts are good but I also see how negative also impacts change for the better. Not always digested well but can bring about positive change also in the world. I have been thinking about mother nature and how we become calm and relaxed when nature walking, but yet on the other hand how storms of mother nature impact our lives and bring people together, not always the best circumstances but yet a coming together in a time need. Finding the true self sometimes is not always easy but yet the road can show much beauty. The road you travel Talin intertwines and displays beauty.

  10. “It is easy to talk and put so many things in other people’s minds and tell them and advise them, but sometimes you have to let someone discover things on their own.” Very true! I also find that it’s so easy to give advice (like yours above) to others but when it comes to oneself we forget or we let emotion triumph logic. If we all could remember more often to put ourselves first and to love ourselves unconditionally we’d be a lot happier! Nice blog post, it was a good reminder to wake up to 🙂

  12. Beautifully Said…. I believe in what you have mentioned here. We are what WE make of ourselves, is what I believe….. good piece of writing Talin…:)
