Living with honesty is perhaps one of the most freeing things you can do. You don't have to use a mask, you don't have to keep up with an image and you don't have to be constantly looking over you shoulder.

Being authentic in itself is power, because if you are true to yourself no one can throw mud at you. It is easier to gain respect from other people if you are not wearing a mask over the real you.

Strive to be real and authentic. Insecurity has no place if you want to truly succeed at a level where you are having true freedom. Do away with appearances instead, be the real you.  

Be unafraid of judgement, unleash your true potential and never let other people downplay your value.

In the end you will realize people tend to be magnetized to those that are true to themselves rather than those that displays a different persona.
