3. Do you have drive to want to make a change in the world?

5. Do you enjoy learning and engaging with other cultures?

6. Did you notice that you skipped number four?

7. Did you go back to check?

Yes I have felt isolated because I am a person that beats to a different drum. How do you keep your authentic self in a world thst wants you to comform to its norms?

Hello Griffina! We conform to the moral and ethical guides of our society that influence our belief systems which is a direct response to our behavior. For example, my morals are based on my family, culture, and religion . My beliefs have helped me to be the person I am today and I am greatful. But the same belief systems have created obstacles that have retarded my growth. These obstacles have caused conflict and confusion in my life affecting my thoughts that have led to my present health issues. This is where I begin to question my own behavior in a moment's notice. I can only observe it while being Mindful and this is where my change begins making my own changes to unconscious conformities, hence allowing me to seek and keep my authentic self in a world that wants me to conform to its norms.
