“I don’t trust words, I trust actions.”
— Unknown
you are not
who you think you are
who you tell yourself you are
who you want to believe you are
who you want others to think you are
you are
what you actually do
and changing that
begins with
brutal honesty with yourself
facing the truth your actions and choices reveal
about who you are
avoiding no ugly truth
no hard feelings
accepting who you are revealed to be
working diligently to understand yourself
and then out of acceptance and understanding
making new, better choices
over and over
“Do not expect people to tell you the truth because they also lie to themselves.”
— Don Miguel Ruiz (via perfectquote)
self-awareness
is not self-consciousness
know thyself
it is the beginning
of wisdom
and a lifelong task
because we hate
to face our own ugliness
self-consciousness
seeks to manipulate
and control
how others perceive you
out of insecurity and
desperation to be
liked, accepted, validated
as a substitute
for genuine self-awareness
acceptance, understanding
growth, and change
Don’t wait until you’ve reached your goal to be proud of yourself. Be proud of every step you take toward reaching that goal.
