Are You Real?

Published on May 17, 2008

Do you journey though life using your personal navigation system or are you too concerned about what you should do or be? Do you worry about what others think of you or your behavior? Are you easily lead or do you lead the way—not carrying if others follow. How can you tell if you are authentic or not? First let's get it over with right now—yes, it is frequently painful and never easy to be you and break with tradition.

As a species we seem to prefer people who follow the crowd and obey the cultural rules of our society. At one time this may have had survival value for a tribe of primitive humans. Wild cards could get little group killed. We must still avoid chaos.

We realize early in life, probably around ages 2 to 4 we are a separate human being with our own values and desires. Just try to feed the average kid broccoli and you will understand what I mean. However, that is about the same age we begin to seriously experience socialization. Families and educational systems encourage following predefined behaviors. There are penalties for roaming wild and free.

Let's see how much socialization has stuck to you.

1. Are you easily embarrassed?

2. Do people say you are very cooperative?

3. Do people say you are very cooperative?

7. Do you feel compelled to dress according to the current style?

8. Is your self confidence a little shaky?

9. Do you have a lacksidasical sense of purpose and goals?

    Hello, Zodiaclove, and thank you for your comment. Could you tell me with what you disagree? Naturally, since you are unique you won't agree with everything I say--or maybe even most of what I say. However, I would be happy to expand on my comments.
    Have a beautiful day and thank you again for your comment.
