“Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.”— Oscar Wilde
What it means
Imitating another person's identity hides the qualities that make your own perspective valuable. Authenticity means developing your strengths rather than performing someone else's version of success.
Context
Wilde’s timeless advice on individuality remains relevant today.
Reflect
Where are you changing yourself mainly to gain approval?
Today’s action
Express one honest preference today, respectfully and without apologising for it.
