Daily Wisdom – Motivational Podcast – Day 287 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond
There are many people who believe that what they feel inside or who they are inside, is more important than what is outside. Let me explain my belief of external versus the internal. There are many people who believe that what they feel inside or who they are inside, is more important than what is outside. Let me explain my belief of external versus the internal.
The external self is the person who shows the outcome of who they are on the outside. It’s how they dress, how they act, and the person that they are trying to impress upon others of who they really are. The internal part, is what they feel, what they think, things that are more personal to themselves.
If you want your external part to reflect your internal views, they need to match. How would you do that? Very simple. Don’t look so much when it comes to the external of others. Let’s say you want to buy an outfit, something that you want to wear. Don’t look at fashion or the way others dress; that is not you. That certainly doesn’t represent your internal part, your thoughts or your dreams, or your aspirations or your being, or your soul, or your ambitions. That’s somebody else’s. The way fashion is today is to represent the fashion maker, or the fashion of the world. Who are you, and what do you want the world to be? That’s whom you need to project to others; use your own internal feelings to decide what you should wear.
Same thing with your actions, don’t act according to what everybody else does. If you’re at a party and everybody else is rowdy and getting drunk, and saying things which are inappropriate, is that truly you? Is that the person you are? Is that the one you’re aspiring to be?
Are you proud to be in that situation? If the answer to those questions is no, then you need to change that. This is the wrong environment; walk away, then be the person that you need to be. Because everyone is screaming, you don’t have to. Because everyone is angry at a situation, you don’t have to. Because everyone is upset at a situation, you don’t have to. You can be the person that you need to be. The one that represents your internal views, your internal being, and that is the difference between the external self and the internal self. External self is the person you’re projecting; the internal self is the one that you truly are. Use that to be the best that you can be and project to everyone whom you truly want them to see.
