Be authentic in any situation, so that you can always bring your best to life.
from Tools of Titans: The Tactics, Routines, and Habits of Billionaires, Icons, and World-Class Performers by Timothy Ferriss
Glenn Beck and Andrew Zimmerman, successful media personalities, both discovered that people are starving for authenticity. Glenn Beck is a leading American political commentator, author, and co-founder of Blaze Media (a multiplatform news and entertainment network available on television, radio, and the internet which receives between 30 and 50 million unique visitors per month). Andrew Zimmern is an award-winning TV personality, chef, writer, and teacher. Both discovered that audiences will accept you, warts and all, as long as that’s who you really are. Their ongoing success is proof of the effectiveness of being yourself. It is a win-win for all involved, as it is so empowering and much less work to be yourself.
