Be the Authentic You – Embrace it.

Be the authentic you.  That is a way of life that I have learned to embrace.  To be the authentic you means that you have decided to plot your own path in life.  This is so liberating.  There was a time when I followed what everyone else thought was best for me.  I had the perfect job, the perfect salary and was perfectly miserable.  I thought following the “American Dream” meant everything.  It was hollow.  That is when I decided to follow my dream.  My dream did not include working for someone else.  That shocked my entire family.  They wanted me to get a “good job” and plan to retire there.  When I first started my business, things were tough.  The only encouragement that they provided was for me to “get a real job.”  I did get a real job.  It just happened to be the business that I created.

 

Be the Authentic You – Follow it.

Be the authentic you.  Follow your heart.  What is it speaking?  Don’t be afraid to step out.  Don’t live a life of regret. Starting a business is not easy.  Neither is learning how to run it.  But if you take simple steps you can do it. I never looked back.  It has been an amazing journey.  I am in harmony with myself because I am doing the job that I enjoy.  Life purpose is often identified when your dreams align with your work.  My dream was to write and be in the media field.  I live that dream everyday.  My road did not start with a choice.  It began when I lost my job. I made a decision that I would not return to the formal workplace.  I decided to start my own business.
