A New Form of Power

 A new form of power arises when you no longer need people's love, attention or respect. It is a power of being your true authentic self, and being complete and whole as you are. You can then operate from a place of love and service. 

Self Suppressed or Self Expressed

You are generally either self-suppressed or self-expressed. What is important is the cultivation of values and attitudes that allow the self-expression to be positive for the self and others and also have the courage and openness to accept the self-expression of others as valid and authentic to them even when you do not agree with their views, you will be able to accept their point of view. 

Be Yourself

Be yourself so that you can be weeded out of places you do not belong to and to be found by places where you do. 

Being You

Free yourself with concerns of your image, become more concerned with being you.
You will realise that being you is much easier and rewarding than being concerned of your image. The latter depletes you of your aliveness and the former contributes to it.

Authentic Self

Many people spend more time and energy not being themselves and failing quite well at it. The successful are those who leverage of who they are no matter how weird, quirky and unpopular that may be. Their sheer confidence in being their authentic self and using their time and energy in the direction of this, helps them get far in life.
