Introduction
How to Be True to Yourself begins with bringing one powerful rule into your life.
Bring one important rule into your life.
Look, life can be lived in two ways. One is the way most people live nowadays — living according to others because of fear, neglecting themselves, constantly worrying about what people will say, and spending their whole life trapped in fear. And just like that, life passes by.
The second way is to choose your own life.
Two Ways to Live Life
Understand this: Allah has given every person their own life, and they have the right to live it fully according to their own choice.
No one has the authority to control it. So why should I allow anyone to control my life? In that sense, this life is completely yours.
If this life is mine, then I will decide what I want to do and what I don’t want to do.
Take Ownership of Your Life
Remove all those fears from your mind that people have planted inside you.
They are nothing but thoughts stopping you from becoming your best version. The more you fear these things, the more they will steal your happiness.
Look at others — they are living their lives the way they want. So why shouldn’t you? Every person thinks differently. Your thinking cannot match everyone’s thinking.
Take advice, yes — but don’t give people the authority to make decisions for your life.
Let Go of Fear and Opinions
Whether people say good things about you or bad things — become indifferent to both.
You cannot stop people from talking. So don’t give importance to their words. If they speak, listen calmly. Forgive them. If needed, respond politely. Otherwise, don’t waste your energy.
You are not meant to rise in people’s eyes — you are meant to be right in your own eyes.
Protect Your Energy
Live your life without fear. Stand by your principles. Stay authentic to your nature. Adopt good things, improve yourself — but don’t give people a place in your heart that belongs only to Allah.
Love Allah the most. People are not always worthy of that level of attachment.
Stay Authentic and Confident
Start living your life properly. If you haven’t been living it fully until now, start today.
Live confidently, according to your values, with happiness and balance. Enjoy your work. Do it confidently, in your own way. Don’t compare yourself to others.
Focus on your own life. Make your life amazing.
Live for Allah, Not for People
These fears, these people — they are temporary. One day, we all have to leave this world.
Worship Allah. Speak kindly to people for the sake of Allah. Stay silent for the sake of Allah when needed.
Don’t worry too much about tomorrow. Don’t stress excessively about money. Trust Allah.
