Finding the Authentic You in 2017

Strive to authenticate, not duplicate yourself

Most people have wondered why they were put here on this earth. They question their habits, their likes, their dislikes, and their preference for this and their strong dislike for that. Most live a lifetime and never find answers to these simple questions.

Introducing, Authentically You University aka Authentically U.

By enrolling in the virtual “Authentically You University”, you’ll discover your answers and uniqueness as well as answer your really hard questions about yourself.

..the Backstory

The people leaving this earth in 2016 just seem to be more plentiful and impacting for some reason. I don’t know if it’s because they are similar in age or whether it’s because they are similar in lifestyle. I just can’t put my finger on why we are all so shaken by the announcement of another celebrity death. But we are.

As the media begins to unveil their lives, we begin to notice the breadcrumbs that were laid on their life’s journey. It’s strange how those breadcrumbs gave un-deliberate insight to their fate.

The common thread I’ve noticed is that very few of them lived deliberate lives, structured by written goals, plans and actions. Or maybe they did and they just didn’t let the public know it. From my view, it seems as if their lives were luckily haphazard.

Closer scrutiny, however, always reveals the underbelly of fame and success and it’s many instances of no goals, or plans and many ill-fated actions.

I wonder how much better their lives would have been if they had taken a moment to plan it? What if they weren’t pushed in every direction by the winds of life? What lessons could we learn from the life examples that they’ve set?

My biggest lesson? Be You! Be Free! Be Authentic!

Your goal should not be a life of duplicity but one of authenticity that brings all of the traits and characteristics that are truly and uniquely yours into your defined self.

Knowing what you were designed to do puts you in your purpose. It creates your passion and your passion very seldom leaves you wanting — and usually helps you build the wealth you desire.

If you’re broke living in your passion, then you may be living within your desires, not your passion.

How do you tell the two apart?

That’s what this series on Authentically U will discuss.

In 2017, I will submit monthly topics that will discuss alignment and personal awareness to help uncloud your vision and help you discover your authentic self.

Honesty with yourself will be very important.

When you know your authentic self, you attain a level of self-actualization that allows happiness, joy, peace, satisfaction, gratification, self-love and self-worth to enter into every fiber of your being.

When these elements exist in your aura/spirit, they attract success, money, and love and puts your life on a favorable track. Join me in this literary journey by following me on Medium.
