Responsibility. The word is loaded with connotations. There are so many ways that we can view them, and there are so many different types of responsibility. Sometimes people look at responsibilities as a burden. I choose to take a different perspective. I look at responsibility as a gift. You might well be saying to yourself, … Continue reading Being True to Yourself – Part 2 – Responsibility

Being True to Yourself – Part 1 – Authenticity
The Being True to Yourself Series, is a result of personal observations and experiences. Authentic means being true to who you are. Genuine.
