What does it mean to be Authentic?

According to Brene Brown, to be authentic we must cultivate the courage to be imperfect and vulnerable. We have to believe that we are fundamentally worthy of love and acceptance just as we are.  He continued by saying '' i have learned that there is no better way to invite more grace, gratitude and joy into our lives than by mindfully practicing authenticity. 

Authenticity is a core value needed by everyone. To be authentic, you must be yourself at all times. Be true to yourself and being true to oneself means that you have to be honest and trustworthy. You must be a person who lives by a code of morals and values. Try and be as true as ever. Be the original you. Do not copy someone else. Then again- think inwardly and outwardly,  When you practice authenticity it would help you with thinking deeply before making any decision. Authentic people are deep thinkers who generate thoughts from within and transfer it outward to add value to the lives of others. To be authentic means to be kind always. Also live in the moment and be a good communicator. 

Be open-minded. I'm all about personal growth.
