You are and individual and noone does a better job at being you than yourself. Wouldn't human be much like sheeps if everyone tried to be like the other? Recall that in Hans Christian Anderson's tale 'The Ugly Duckling', the young swan felt a failure as a duckling because, well, it wasn't really a duckling, was it? How could it be a successful something that it was not?Its funny how we don't realize that when you are wanting to be someone else, someone else is eager to be like you. Embrace your flaws,mend them and meanwhile polish you strengths. A little fire for creating a better self is worth more than 100 air puffs to blow someone's …show more content…
The problem with affirmation is that they tend to help the person create a lie and live it without treating the underlying cause for his inferiority and that's why his feelings of inferiority will never disappear.As it is rightly said "your life is your story and make sure its best seller".Need for approval can reflect unresolved issues that may trace back at times to a persons childhood. Its always easier to take up advice and follow what others think is best for you but is it really better? Choose your own terms and your own path. Write your own terms and conditions and make the best decisions which you can standby with noone to
I learned that I had created my own feeling of inferiority by putting so much focus on someone else’s best quality. I was too busy trying to be better than them when I just needed to be my own best. As long as I focus on being the best for myself I could eliminate so much of the silly mental worries. Sometimes I still do this to this day but perhaps one day I will realize that I no longer need to compare myself to other people. In the meantime, I’m learning to accept that this is something I do and finding ways to use is as a force for positive
There you are. Just standing there, looking back at your reflection through the mirror and seeing all of the negative words permanently sticking to you. Not very many people truly love who they are, and that is because of the society we live in today. No one likes to be judged all of the time for who they are or what they do. So, we end up doing anything to fit in, no matter what. Your identity is who you are and your actions, and you shouldn’t be ashamed of it, but some people are. Those people are the ones that have figured out that they won’t fit in unless they manage to change something, and unfortunately they choose to change their identity, because of stereotypes, prejudice, and self doubt.
“You are your only border - throw yourself over it!” - Hafis ,persian poet. If you only get one shot at being a person, why not be you? Being yourself is better than being anyone else, always be you!
Personally, I feel like that at times I may be crushed by the metaphorical weight of other’s views on me. I am expected to be smart, and to become an amazing actress and author. I am expected to live up to these standards that sometimes I cannot
you need to find yourself and discover who you are in order to live a happy and fulfilling life.
I don't want someone to feel bad for being themselves. If you don't have anything nice to say, just do not say it at all. I believe being yourself is the best thing you can do, you are only hurting yourself when you change to fit in. You will loose yourself and you will not like how you feel, you won't even know if you're the same person. It is important not to care too much about what others think. Just be a kind and positive you and people will perceive you the best way possible and you can feel good about staying true to
You should stay true to yourself because if you want to imitate someone who are killing yourself figuratively. How is your inner self alive if you don’t display it no one knows who you really are so your soul is dead to others. They would just see that you are like everyone else or like someone else in particular and then you will be compared to the other person which isn’t what people usually want. If someone were to compare you to someone and you are just off there in the corner hearing this and they are saying “blah blah he’s/she’s exactly like so and so” and you are just like no I’m me , but you have no proof because what they are saying is true. Your inner self would never be known to people if you like to hide away and just do what it is popular they we’ll see you as just no one special and everyone wants to have something different about them that’s what makes people awesome there is not two of the same exact people, so why would you want to strive to be exactly like another person.
People aren't happy with who they are because they are afraid society will reject them because that is what they do now, if you are different to those who try to be like the others you will be destined to be the weird person people know or that isolated person that tries to be different to be cool or gain popularity. Society now a days forces you to be all the same:
When we are insecure, we hide feelings of inferiority, try to impress others, seek to sit in important places, be seen with the right people etc
In other words, stop seeing yourself as special or different, but also don 't see yourself as any less than anyone else.
The reason why I am different is because of the comfort level I have established with certain people, the more comfortable I am the more I can be myself. If I am just getting to know someone I project some parts of who I am and once I begin to form a bond, I get comfortable to be who I really am. For example, once on the bus a guy sat next to me, he tapped my shoulder and started talking to me. After I laughed about what we were talking about; he confessed that he thought that I was just going to answer his questions with a simple yes or no based on my body was positioned. I didn’t open up to him, but I felt liked I could talk to him.
The more you like yourself, the less you are like anyone else, which makes you unique”- Walt Disney. By looking at the book three cheers for Tacky, one can see that there needs to be more Tackys in the world. Which is important because not everyone needs to be perfect and the same, society needs to be more like Fruit loops and less like cheerios. Many people like Hitler have argued for everyone to be the same, other people like Martin Luther King Jr. would agree that we should love people for who they are and how they are. People try to be the same as other people they can’t because everyone one is made different for a reason.
In the modes of literature there are four mode lines to follow off of. One of the mode lines are romance, which is most commonly used beside comedy. In the beginning of the story there is a mild conflict, and in this case the ugly duckling is driven away and excluded from society because he looks differently and he acts different from everyone else. He tries to find his place everywhere around the land but he can’t find anywhere, where he is accepted. The final point on the mode line of
Does lower self esteem force people to choose the path of isolation or can a different path be chosen instead? The answers to these questions can be found while studying Erik’s case of isolation and inferiority, and analysing the complexities of his personality in depth. Erik, a meteorology student and introvert in nature, has let his low self confidence force him to choose the path of isolation. What really motivates him to do so is something that makes me quite curious. As we see, Erik considers himself as the social misfit. He believes that he can be something in life only for his research skills. But conflicting to this belief is his assumption that he cannot do anything in life due to his looks and ethnicity. This is why he is boycotted from the opportunity that he deserves – being the assistant of his department. Such experiences reduce his confidence and eventually make him harsh. When anyone tries to start a conversation with him, he simply says that he is not the one anyone will want to talk to. It shows that he does not think himself to be a part of the society he lives in; he believes that others are superior to him.
According to Adler, the feeling of inferiority is an inseparable part of human existence. And in order to overcome that feeling one must compensate. In other words, be willing to
