The Power of Personal Authenticity

The most authentic and, dare I say, personally evolved people on the planet are children.

These are preferences often referred to in today’s psychology as our core values – those values that define our happiness, our peace and our power. As long as we get to do these things and embrace these preferences, we are in our groove and life is good – whether we are 7 or 67.

Parents, with their inherent power and the barter of food and shelter, are no match for young children with nothing but naturally developed preferences. This creates an unavoidable conflict between imposed versus core values.

The more you and I live our lives to the tune of our own drummer, the more authentic and the more peaceful and powerful we are.

Who would you choose to be and what would you love to do if there was no one (not any one... not your parents, grandparents, respected teachers, colleagues, friends, etc.) to stand in judgment? What would you wear? What hobbies would you embrace? How would you spend your time and money? In other words, who would you be if you had the full permission of everyone who loved you? Almost always, we would be someone different than who we are.

Think about what “by heart” means. It becomes part of who we are , existing in every cell of our body, laced throughout our spirit.

It works because it is merely training the powerful part of you to shine again. It is already in there, always has been, covered up by a thousand wet blankets.
