Work for a cause, not for applause. Live life to express, not to impress. Don’t strive to make your presence noticed, just make your absence felt.

Be kind. Be thoughtful. Be genuine. But most of all, be thankful.

It’s OK to be different. It’s OK to be unique. It’s OK to be weird. It’s OK to stand out.

No matter what people think of you, always keep singing your own song.

Be messy and complicated and afraid and show up anyways.

Maybe the reason nothing seems to be ‘fixing you’ is because you’re not broken. Let today be the day you stop living within the confines of how others define or judge you. You have a unique beauty and purpose; live accordingly.

A meaningful life is not being rich, being popular, or being perfect. It’s about being real, being humble, being able to share ourselves and touch the lives of others.

The coolest people I’ve ever met have the most colorful pasts, they’ve lived lives of risk, made bad choices, learned lessons, explored, and they’re not afraid of being real. Tattered tapestries woven of similar threads, they’re my kind of people. My favorite shades of crazy.

Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life.

If you trade your authenticity for safety, you may experience the following: anxiety, depression, eating disorders, addiction, rage, blame, resentment, and inexplicable grief.

I don’t need a friend who changes when I change and who nods when I nod; my shadow does that much better.

There is nothing more beautiful than seeing a person being themselves. Imagine going through your day being unapologetically you.

Everything will line up perfectly when knowing and living the truth becomes more important than looking good.

We need to find the courage to say no to the things and people that are not serving us if we want to rediscover ourselves and live our lives with authenticity.

Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind.

Don’t look for society to give you permission to be yourself.

Be yourself, because an original is worth more than a copy.

You’ll never know who you are unless you shed who you pretend to be.

Don’t change so people will like you. Be yourself and the right people will love the real you.

I’d rather be honest and authentic and disappoint some people than to exhaust myself trying to keep up the façade of perfection.
