Know Thyself

"You create beauty with your attitude,

you make an impression with your behavior,

you make statements with your elegance

and scream out with your actions.

Sophia Elemara

Deciding what to do to make an impression upon others, is a waste of time.   It is a better investment to focus on personal strengths and how they best can be used.  The more we know and understand our lovely selves, the more we have to offer to the world.   Be comfortable with core values and change what is disliked.  A strong presence will attract more of what is desired, but it is imperative to know and understand that which one seeks.

When we are able to discern our gifts, and polish them with expertise, we will impact the lives of others. When we are unknown to our selves, we project inconsistent and conflicting views.   It is when we use our energy to align what we believe, the stronger impression we make.  We will project a solid image by what we say, how we act, and our level of authenticity.  As Socrates once stated, "Know thyself."

  

So as we stand, our energy is supporting who we are and not disintegrating into parcels others wish us to be.  In Shakespeare's Hamlet, Polonius shares: "This above all:  to thine own self be true, and it must follow, as the night the day, thou canst not then be false to any man."
