Be Yourself.
Disclaimer. This post will be from the perspective & thoughts of mine.
I realise nowadays many people change themselves and turn back on what they said before just to fit in. Many people spend money and try to look as good as possible to fit in to the society. I won't deny that I'm one of those who tries to look as good as possible. Most people would, isn't it? But I be myself, as eccentric as usual, bipolar,etc.
Some people IMITATE another person and tries to fit in, which obviously failed. It's more important to be yourself than be fake, right? Don't try to be someone else. Someone may like the personality you try to fake but when you reveal your true self, whoever that liked you may or may not like you any more. It is not just the relationship kind of like I'm talking about, but also friendships.
Don't live being some else.
Steve Jobs. “Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else´s life.”
There are also people who spend money on latest trending fashion just to make themselves look... I don't know, I don't get what kind of impression they want to get. Look rich? Fashionable? Oh please, looking fashionable is not by getting the latest trending apparels or getting popularly branded items. It's more of getting something that suits you and compliments your body. Getting the correct outfit coordinate that suits you despite your height or body shape. Why try so hard to be something you aren't or something that obviously don't suit you? I don't get these people and I probably don't want to understand you people...
I believe there are many different ideas of fashionable but what I stated above is my idea.
I believe it is more important to be yourself and so much more comfortable to be yourself rather than being someone else. You won't need to worry people finding out your true self if you were yourself right from the start.
When I thought of blogging about this, I have a lot of things I wanted to say. Yet now I don't really know what to say. In my mind, whatever I want to say (e.g. wannabe s, copycats, etc) all leads to same conclusion, they want to fit in, they want to be recognized and gain attention. Well, they may be inspired by the person they try to be, but you don't necessary have to copy even the personality...
“To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.”
― Ralph Waldo Emerson
