“Be Who You Are
Don’t waste your life trying to become somebody else.
Don’t waste your life trying to live up to your performance expectations.
Don’t waste your life imitating others.
Don’t waste your life living out other people’s expectations.
Don’t waste your life envious of other people.
Be authentic. Be genuine. Be real. Be yourself.
You won the lottery, you were born.
You won the lottery, you are you.
You are Buddha in Blue Jeans.
Enjoy being yourself!”
