There are still some wonderful people left in this world! They are diamonds in the rough, but they're around! You'll find them when you fall down— they're the ones who pick you up, who don't judge, and you had to fall down to see them! When you get up again, remember who your true friends are!C. Joybell C.
About This Quote
In his book, The Six Pillars of Self-Esteem , Nathaniel Branden writes that the only way to know if you are your true self is to be yourself. This means that if you are not living up to your full potential, it is because you are afraid of being who you really are. It's because you're not acting on your own highest values; rather, you're acting out of fear or insecurity. If this is the case, you will never achieve true self-esteem.
You will always feel like a fraud. And if you don't feel good about who you are, the only way to feel good about yourself is to be true to yourself. The best way to become true to yourself is to take risks and be vulnerable.
Only then can you truly connect with other people and find out just how much they truly care for you.
