Don’t change. Be who you are.

I was reminded today that it’s important to be who you are and not change for anyone. After all, when we do that, we give up a little bit of ourselves. And that’s not fair to us – or anyone else.

I had been in the process of writing a blog post about a topic I ‘thought’ was something I ‘should’ write – instead of embracing who I am, how I sound and what I believe. It was only when I offered advice to someone else saying, “No, no. Don’t change who you are to please someone else. Be you. You’re awesome. And people will dig it,” that it dawned on me: I was doing the same thing. Ugh. ◔̯◔ So, I stopped writing the post, re-centered and decided to embrace me.

Who are you?

Businesses are no different. You have to figure out who you are, how you want to sound – formal, casual, somewhere in between – and what makes you different from everyone else. After all, that’s the way we connect. That’s how relationships are built, whether business or personal.

Above all else, we have to be us. Period.
