We live in a world today that unfortunately seems to encourage conformity. We even measure ourselves by some pretty rigid standards that have been set by other people. So, how do you step out of these standards so you can be the best version of yourself? Simple. Just stop following the crowd.
Okay, finding the best version of yourself is going to take a little bit of work on your part.
First of all, we need to overcome what other people have decided as to whether or not we are worthy based on their opinions.
They probably have no idea what it means to walk in your shoes.
The opinions of other people who don’t understand us are often shaped by our own image of who we are.
Unfortunately, this can tarnish all that we might want to accomplish based on the biases which just makes achieving our dreams that much more difficult.
We Are Good Enough
We don’t deserve to believe that we are less than we are because someone feels the need to tell us that we aren’t good enough.
Only we can determine our destiny. When we give others the power to judge us and allow their opinions to shape our opinions of ourselves, we end up not achieving our dreams.
This can lead to feelings of depression and being unmotivated. We feel this way because we are living outside of our own integrity.
When we allow others to shape our futures, we are destroying our own happiness.
Unfortunately, there isn’t any secret potion that we can drink that will turn us into the person we want to be.
In order to become the best version of ourselves will take some time and dedication. Just little practice and determination.
We are going to have to be comfortable with the process no matter how long it takes.
Taking the Necessary Steps to Be Good Enough
When we look inward and learn how to take the necessary steps we have a better chance of not falling back into our feelings of not being good enough.
It is important to remember to not rush the process by trying to do more than we are capable of at the moment.
We just need to take things slowly and give ourselves the time that we need to get reacquainted with our goals and aspirations.
Once you have adjusted to the new way of being you can pick up the pace.
Remember to Take Care of Yourself
It is important to take some time each day to make sure you are meeting your needs.
It is also important that you continue to work towards accomplishing your personal goals. These goals at this time need to be realistic and accomplishable by you.
Remember to give yourself credit for choosing how you will show up instead of staying stuck in a rut that isn’t going to get you anywhere.
As a result, no one will be able to try and shape your destiny ever again. It is in your hands. You have taken a large step towards success.
This is where you get to congratulate yourself for what you are doing. Just remember, that some people are never going to understand.
That’s okay. You aren’t living your life for them.
It’s All About Being the Best You Can Be
From here on in, it is going to be all about the best that you can be.
You need to allow yourself to feel your victories and be proud of what you have accomplished.
Remember that success breeds success. If you set small attainable goals, and then celebrate when you achieve those goals, you will be able to move on to the next goal.
Although being the best version of yourself might take some time and effort on your part, it will be worthwhile.
All you need to do is to stop buying into other people’s version of who they think you are.
Choose what you want in your life instead.
The result will be that you have mastered your own destiny. And isn’t that worth it?
The Link Between Wisdom and Success
Socrates has been accredited with this statement. What has that statement to do with wisdom and you being able to master your destiny?
It is true that every day, we are faced with many, many decisions that we need to make. These decisions can sometimes change the course of our lives and relationships.
Those decisions might seem somewhat inconsequential at the time.
So how can we ensure that our choices and decisions are wisely made?
The answer to that question is introspection.
Being Able to Have Confidence In Ourselves
If we are not completely confident in ourselves and our goals, then the choices we make are going to be a gamble.
We may like the outcome of our decision, or we may live to regret what we chose to do.
We are never going to be really sure unless we have a better understanding of ourselves and our motivations for making those choices.
If we don’t, then it will make it harder for us to follow our intuition, because we don’t really understand what we want out of life!
Although intuition may seem somewhat strange and mysterious, it is, however, a conclusion of our encounters that our unconscious mind has made into a sense impression.
If we don’t experience our world with confidence, then our mind won’t know what to make of the sensory input that it is receiving.
That is one of the reasons to make sure that you know precisely who you are and what you want out of life.
How to Find Confidence in Our Choices
First of all, you might want to sit down and think about what it is that you really want to accomplish in your life and what it is that you believe in and why.
When we come from a place of not knowing ourselves, we lack any resources that are needed to make wise choices.
We end up making decisions that ultimately don’t get us to where we want to go.
The good news is that there is a way to ensure that we are successful in being able to garner wisdom.
The way we can ensure our success is by getting to know who we are.
This way our intuition will work in our favor rather than giving us what we don’t want.

Unfortunately, we seem to want to try to be like everyone else. Have what they have.
But in the end, we aren’t living our best life and we end up suffering.
You don’t need to be always available to everyone in your life.
Take some time for yourself to reflect on your goals and aspirations. Look at what you want for your future.
Try some visualization exercises that can help to pump up your intuition.
This way you will be able to trust yourself more when it comes to making important life choices.
This way you will know that you are living with integrity and that you are aligned on a higher purpose for your life.
Final Thoughts:
It is best that you don’t rely on people to tell you if you are on the right track for your life.
By taking the necessary step to master your own thoughts and then take steps to achieve your goals, you will be able to create the best life for yourself.
Rember that wisdom is not something we are either born with or we are not. Wisdom is in fact a life skill.
And when you master that skill you will be mastering your destiny!
The result is that you get to be the best version of yourself and success will follow.
