FIND YOURSELF & BE YOURSELF;

REMEMBER THERE’S NO ONE ELSE LIKE YOU IN THIS
WORLD
To be beautiful means to be yourself
You don’t need to be accepted by others
You need to accept yourself!
Dr. James Gordon Gilkey said, “Problem of willing to be yourself is as old as
history & as universal as human life & it is hidden spring behind neuroses,
psychoses & complexes”.
Angelo Patri said, “Nobody is as miserable as he who longs to be somebody &
something other than the person he is in body & mind”.
Paul Boynton said, “The biggest mistake people make in applying for jobs is not
being themselves. Instead of taking their hair down & being completely frank,
they often try to give you the answers they think you want.”
Amran Sheinfeld said, “Anywhere from scores to hundreds of genes with a single
gene, in some cases, able to change the whole life of an individual”.
William James said, “Compared to what we ought to be, we are only half awake”.
Irving Berlin advised the late George Gershwin while offering him a job saying,
“But don’t take the job”. “If you do you may develop into a second rate Berlin.
But if you insist on being yourself someday you’ll become a first rate Gershwin”.
THE LATE POET DOUGLAS MALLOCH

If you can't be a pine on the top of the hill.

Be a scrub in the valley-but be
The best little scrub by the side of the rill;
Be a bush, if you can't be a tree.

If you can't be a bush, be a bit of the grass.

& some highway happier make;
If you can't be a Muskie, then just be a bass-
But the liveliest bass in the lake!
THE LATE POET DOUGLAS MALLOCH
We can't all be captains, we've got to be crew.
There's something for all of us here.
There's big work to do & there's lesser to do
& the task we must do is the near.

If you can't be a highway, then just be a trail,

If you can't be the sun, be a star;
It isn't by the size that you win or you fail-
Be the best of whatever you are!
“Let's not imitate others. Let's find ourselves & be
ourselves.”
