As humans we can only be perfect on paper. This means we are constantly making mistakes, learning from them and evolving into better versions.
When we hide a personality trait from others, it’s often because we’re afraid of judgement.
But sometimes we hide the best parts of ourselves, because people didn’t appreciate them in the past and that left us hurt.
In the process of shielding ourselves from pain or failure, we actually create barriers to our own happiness.
Why?
Because we step into our biggest happiness, peace and success once we fully embrace our authenticity – when we break free from the shielding.
