If you are like most people you have searched and searched for an identity for yourself.  The question is why due you search for an identity when you already have one. 

 Now you might not understand what this means so lets take a look. 

 Do you watch things on TV, read articles and listen to music and think I need to be more like that.  If so you are on the right track to finding yourself but the one place you aren’t looking is at yourself.

 While you take in all of this external stimulus and try to piece together your own identity you are overlooking the qualities that make you and always have made you.

 To find your identity you need to take a deep look inside and find the characteristics which stand out for you.  While searching for these characteristics just think of what friends say you are and make a list. For example, if you are outspoken, if you are quit and so forth.  By doing this you have found your identity at the present time.

 Now comes the hard part, use them to your advantage.  What this means is be proud of who you are and the traits you possess.  If you are proud of who you are and the traits you possess your confidence will go up and you will begin to believe in what you are trying to accomplish. 

 By showing the new found confidence in who you are you won’t make everyone happy and might actually offend the occasional person.  Offending people is going to happen but as long as you are you then who cares, you are the only person you need to answer to, besides more times than not if you are yourself people are going to appreciate your views and opinion more.

 So take some action find your personality traits and use them to your advantage.

Have you ever noticed common sense is becoming harder and harder to find.  People seem to be like cattle and follow others blindly without thinking the situation through.  This has got to stop; people have to get a clue.

What I mean by Clue is think for yourself don’t just listen to anyone and everyone just to make it easier. 

For example:

How many people have you seen run out and get the latest diet book or the latest supplement even though the last diet book and supplement didn’t work.

Or

How many people have you seen by huge houses or expensive cars when they can’t possibly make the payments.

Now to me everyone has some type of impulse or trigger that forces them to act blindly but now more than ever it seems like that impulse does most of their thinking for them.  I personally run into people, on a daily basis, who just don’t have a clue about much.  They have to refer to something to tell them the answer to their problems or what decision to make on a problem.  Come on people everyone makes mistakes but think things through before you make a decision and try to form your own no biased opinions not just those of others.
