Each of us have people and events that influence our behavior.
The obvious sources are people in our lives beginning with our parents.
Parents either show us how TO LIVE or how NOT TO LIVE. We learn from both.
Pressure can also come from siblings positively or negatively.
Then comes classmates whose acceptance we would like to have.
Spouses have a major impact.
Later in life, employers and co-workers can influence our behavior.
After experiencing all these influencers, are you happy with you?
The old saying comes to mind:
“It you don’t stand for something, you’ll fall for anything!”
Are there certain values you hold dear that you will not compromise?
Are they your values or someone else’s?
Are you doing what you’d like to be doing at this stage in your life.
As I approach my 80th year, I’ve learned life is too short especially if you’re not being yourself.
Life is more enjoyable if you are true to yourself.
If not today, when?
