There’s nothing worse than a tough person, trying to be \u2018tough’
\nOR
\nA nice person, trying to be \u2018nice’.
\nIt’s automatic that you are who \/what you are.
\nTrying to be that, even more, becomes too much!
\nThink of someone who always smiles,
\nAlways scowls,
\nAlways tells jokes,
\nAlways bests you.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Take the person who always smiles.
\nIf they try not to smile at all, and their penchant is to always smile,
\nthen they’ll most likely end up smiling ‘just right’.
\nSame with the joke teller.
\nOr negative thinker.
\nOr positive thinker.
\nOr, well, if you do anything \u2018always’ and think that’s the way you \u2018should’ be.
\nAlways.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Whatever you can easily do is the very thing you should strive NOT to do.
\nGiven your bias of already being that way, you\u00a0end up<\/strong> a more balanced person.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

So don’t<\/em><\/strong> be yourself and lose a distorted<\/span> part of your Self Image.<\/p>\n
