Maintaining Self-Awareness

One of the key aspects of staying true to oneself is self-awareness. It involves stepping outside of oneself and acknowledging one's actions and behaviors. Being self-aware allows for taking responsibility and apologizing for any mistakes or frustrations directed towards others. It also entails understanding one's differences and not focusing on those who don't accept or like us, but rather on the many people who find encouragement in authenticity. Additionally, consistently working on personal insecurities plays a crucial role in staying true.
