Be Authentic Series: Two Stories

1/10/2021

22 Comments

 
Are you appealing to the idea that be true to who you are with an authentic character?  Ever heard about the below two stories:

1. A Man And His Perfect Suit

A man got to the best tailor in town to make a suit for himself. He found out the structure of that suit was weird:

The shoulders were too narrow;
The sleeves were too short;
The length of the trousers was too short.

The man asked the tailor what happened to his suit.  The tailor explained the structure of that suit was perfect.  What the man needed to do was shrinking his shoulders and bend his ankles.

The man did shrink his shoulders and bent the ankle to go to work. He caught the attention of two beautiful girls who passed by.

Girl A:  
Hey, you see, that suit is perfect.  The color, texture, and cutting is so good.

Girl B: 
Well, yes, the suit is perfect. I feel pity for that man. Is he a cripple?

2. ​The Dressing Style Of Einstein

Albert Einstein almost always liked to wear shabby clothes.  One day, his friend told him to pay more attention to his appearance as he was a famous scientist.
Einstein replied that those people who knew him would understand this dressing style was so normal to him.  For those people who didn’t know him, why should he need to care?

All in all, the bad news is you’re not going to fit-in the person you learn to be.
The good news is happy fabulous person never does.
~~~~~~~~~~
I agree with the idea that just be me and everything to be okay.  The dilemma that applies to the relationship with my mom is a bit tricky.  If I insist on doing the right thing for me, but my mom opposes me to do. She’ll upset (play victim).   I won’t be happy to derive from the feeling of self-blame to hurt my mom.  If I appease her to do what she wants me to do out of obligation, I’ll not feel happy, either.  How to deal with this dilemma? Please stay tuned to my next post.
love letter to myself

I love the subject for this post, we will never please everyone and understanding that we actually do need to please ourselves is so important.

Yes. What's the point if everyone like me but I dislike myself.

After years of trying to please others, I realized how unhappy and unfulfilled I was. Once I embodied my truth I started living life to it fullest - with so much joy and happiness. Love that you are a voice behind authenticity.

It sounds good as you've lived your life with joy and happiness. We won't be happy if we keep on pleasing others without fulfilling our needs.

These are great little stories, proof that we should be ourselves. You aren't going to please everyone, and that's okay.

I love the moral of the story—be true to yourself in every circumstances. Conforming to the societal norms is counterintuitive. Thank you for sharing.

Interesting food for thought. These are good examples of how we think of ourselves, our appearance, and what makes us who we are.

Great stories. There's a definitely balance we need to keep. If we lose ourselves in our overall efforts-whether it be our job, how we dress, our family-we tend to become unhappy. Authenticity is always key.
