Living with authenticity isn’t always easy. We live in a world where most people are driven to seek validation, admiration, and approval from those around us. 

Unfortunately, this makes it all too easy to suddenly find yourself striving to prove your worth to the group or claw your way to recognition…

 Instead of living true to your own values and beliefs.

What a lot of people don’t understand is that being your authentic self and standing by your morals doesn’t mean that you have no concern about how others feel about you, or that you don’t care how your own actions affect others.

It simply means that your primary focus should be on giving back genuine love and respect…

Rather than seeking approval from others.

Living authentically means understanding that it’s ok if people don’t like you, as long as you are staying true to yourself. 

In return, it means not trying to manipulate or coerce anyone else into doing something they don’t want to do in exchange for admiration or acceptance. 

By concentrating on being generous with your love and care rather than worrying about what everyone else thinks of you, it ensures that no matter what happens, at least you will always have peace within yourself… 

Even if there are people in your life who don’t understand or approve.
