The truth about you is....

The truth about you is this:
You are not "inferior" You are not "superior" You are simply "You" "You" as a personality is not in competition with any other personality simply because there is not  another person like you" 
Taken from the book Physco Cybernetics by Dr. Maxwell Maltz.


I've been reading Physco Cybernetics by Dr. Maxwell Maltz. 
I keep having the most incredible "OMG!! that's amazing", insightful moments as I read this incredible book and the above paragraph definitely sparked one of those moments.

This theme of, "Be Yourself because everyone else is taken", has been following me around a lately.
I've always been the black sheep, Missy Independent, Gypsy girl, not quite fitting into the Cliques.
I've accepted and grown to love who I am and have met other odd balls, crazy ones like me ;-)

My 6yr old boy is starting to experience that he's different too. 
He likes what he likes and has a very strong sense of himself (which I love).

People around me are talking about Independence, Self- realisation and the importance of being true to yourself.
The truth of the matter for me is that, I'm at my best when I'm being authentic.
However kooky she/me might be ;-)
If I think of the successful people I admire like Oprah, Marc Accetta, Maya Angelo, Richard Branson, they are authentically themselves.

So I decided to always be aware, to guide my son so he can save himself the bother and waste of time of conformity and be his fabulous self.

So here's to the Crazy Ones, who aren't afraid to be their fabulous-selves ;-)
