Being You

Understanding the importance of Being Your True Self, is a crucial step towards achieving Peace and Harmony within.

There is only one person in the entire world that you have the power to change. You. There may be instances where you believe you changed those around you, but you never did and can never do. If somebody around you changed, it's because they chose to. The same goes for yourself. NOBODY can change you. Only you have that power and that choice.

Others can influence your desire to change yourself and even provide you with methods and ideas to go about it, but it always will come back to you being the one to make the choice and the change.

To become the Real You, you must consider what that really means. The Real You is that person inside that you genuinely and truly desire to become. The Real You is that part of you that takes on any challenge and sees past the worlds obstacles. Nothing can stop you from becoming the Real You, except the current you.

The Real You already exists. That's why you are guaranteed to become that person. That's why you have the desires you have, because they already exist deep within you and are pushing themselves outwards. Becoming the Real You has all to do with chipping away the old you as compared with creating a new you. There is no New You, only the Real You.

Your spirit is who you really are. While visiting this reality on Earth, you use a body to function in this world, but that is not who you are. Your physical body is just your vehicle. You are no more a body as you are a Corvette when you sit inside a car. The car carries you and helps you, but it's just a car. Your body carries you and helps you, but it's just a body.

Working towards becoming the Real You is a lifetime project, but each step you take towards becoming yourself, the more you understand what the next step is and the more you see that needs change. It's a wonderful snowball effect where you grow more and more as you discover new things about yourself. Your growth provides the tools and desire to pursue continued growth. Once you get this ball rolling....NOTHING can stop it.

How much change is necessary to become the Real You? The amount of change can't be measured or described, but you will understand better if you can consider that almost everything you think that is real and important is just the opposite of what the Real You knows to be true. The journey to become the real you may take many lifetimes or existences, but you are guaranteed to prevail because that's what God desires for you.

To get started, you only need to acknowledge there is more to life than there appears to be. Open yourself, your heart to God and allow him to reveal himself to you and you will begin the journey to getting to know the real you and also getting to know our creator as well. To know Him is to know yourself and to truly know yourself is to know him. We Are One.

Being your True Self puts you in a relationship with people where you are more and more honest with yourself and others as time goes by. Being your True Self creates a true awareness of the people around you. As you learn to see yourself differently, you also see others differently as well. It has to be this way because we are all one.

To aid you on your way, I highly recommend any of the literature by Neale Donald Walsch. This is where I began to see God differently and the Real Me really began to reveal itself. Be truthful with yourself and spend time with God. Seek God first and everything else you need will come to you.
