When you are creating content for the consumption of others, authenticity is warranted. The more that you show your audience that you are genuine and authentic. The more they are inclined to come back and consume your content. Lie to them and you will be burning more bridges than your build. Below are 5 ways to be yourself.
Accept yourself
You cannot accept anyone if you can not allow yourself, just like you can not help anyone if you can not help yourself. You are the master of your own destiny. If you believe that you can accomplish big things that you can; it just might take a little while to get here, but you will.
Be vulnerable
It is okay to come out of your shell and show your flaws. Even a diamond has imperfections. When you practice humility, you humble yourself, and others will accept you more for it.
Express yourself
Share your thoughts with others, now, this is not to say that all opinions should be shared because some things shouldn't be shared. But it is okay to converse with your audience and show them that you are in a similar position as them. I do this whenever I talk about my experiences.
Realize negative self-talk
Do not allow your demons to get the best for you. Take all of your negative thoughts and lock them into a closet and throw away the key. It can be hard maintaining a positive outlook, especially when you are in a rut, things aren't going your way, or you are feeling terrible about
Recognize your strengths
Believe in yourself and know yourself. You are energetic and can overcome any obstacles. One method of doing this is by recognizing your strengths and playing to them. For example, I know that I best operate early in the morning between 4:30 am and 7:00 am. When you play to your strengths you are able to accomplish more.
