Authenticity

  • Authenticity means the quality of being genuine and true (as per the Oxford Dictionary)
  • You’re an authentic person if you know what you’re comfortable with, what you’re not comfortable with and you’re willing to take a stand for yourself and your beliefs.
  • As and when you keep reaching outside your boundaries of comfort, your likes and dislikes keep changing and you get a deeper understanding of what you want / don’t want in your life.
  • Just be honest with yourself about your comfort zone and keep pushing it’s boundaries to achieve your desires.
