Over four years and going strong!  With over 500,000 downloads from over 9 countries and 5 continents’…. this is the Warrior Mind Podcast.

In this episode of the Warrior Mind Podcast I’m going to talk about being true to yourself, what that means and why it’s important for peak performance.

Polonius: 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.

In order to be true to yourself, it means you need to act like the person you actually are.

This means to be true to yourself, you need to love yourself and it’ll come to you naturally.

If you know and love yourself, you will find it effortless to be true to yourself.

You’ve likely heard that you cannot love others, until you love yourself. That means it is impossible to be truthful to others, until you are true to yourself. That means you must embrace who you are.

While it might not be simple at first, find the courage to accept who you are. Don’t be the person others believe you should be. Never act or pretend to be someone you are not simply to be accepted. You must be true to yourself, in order to be loved.

When they are young, many youths will do what they can to seek acceptance from their peers. This includes drinking and drugs, and this isn’t the right things to do. When you go against the positive advice of your parents, you begin to experience a new realm of problems that you’ll struggle with.

The goal here is to remain a genuine and true individual. This allows you to be a reflection of who you are. You’ll find that you become happier and there is more to life, than simply being the most popular or well liked person. In fact, when you do anything besides being your true self, you become confused and life ultimately becomes more difficult in the process.

Self-respect is essential, and it comes from being the true version of who you are. This is acting in accordance with the person you are supposed to be. When you begin to respect yourself, others will also respect you. This will allow you to stand up for what you believe is right and for people to ultimately respect all of your beliefs.

At the same time, you allow yourself to showcase your uniqueness and individuality. The options are respected and you won’t have to conform to the stereotypes of being someone you are not.

It will take some courage to do this. After all, you aren’t going to find that people always warmly embrace those who are open with who they are. But you will avoid being miserable, as you try to continue living your life as something you can never be.

Always be the very best version of you that you can be. When you maintain your highest values and aspirations, you will ultimately exceed. Remember, the most successful people in the world are those who understand that you must be true to yourself.
