No two people are identical, not even identical twins. Everyone is a one-of-a-kind. And do you know what a one-of-a-kind is worth? Priceless! Yes, this means YOU are priceless. From the day we are born and open our eyes, we start to grow into the person we will ultimately become as a result of the environment we are exposed to and the experiences we endure. And although our parents and mentors have a large impact on our upbringing, we rarely walk the exact path they had in mind for us. Contrary to the way many people behave, we do not have to do what other people tell us to do all of the time. We are constantly under siege from family, friends, strangers and the media to act, behave and live in certain ways. But despite all of these external influences, we have the ultimate choice to make our own decisions. Be true to yourself or you aren’t true to anyone. This is a powerful quote my mother told me a long time ago. And whenever I make a decision I try to stick to it. It is one thing to lie to other people, but it is much worse to lie to yourself. Many people get into the habit of ignoring their true desires and instead they just do what they believe is expected of them by others. I promise you, this path will only lead to failure on all fronts...!!
