The Person I Thought I Had to Be 📖✨
When I was younger, I thought being confident meant always having an answer. I admired people who spoke quickly, seemed certain and never admitted that they were confused. Because of that, I sometimes pretended to understand things even when I didn't. Over time, however, my idea of confidence changed. I began to notice that some of the people I respected most were comfortable saying, “I don't know,” asking questions and changing their minds when they learned something new. I now see confidence less as certainty and more as the ability to be honest about what you know and what you still need to learn. I haven't become a completely different person, but I have become more comfortable with uncertainty. That change has made me more curious, more patient and, surprisingly, more confident.

Should We Always Stay True to Ourselves? 📖
People often say, “Stay true to yourself,” as if the self were something fixed. The advice can be useful because it reminds us not to change simply to please others. At the same time, it can be misleading. People learn, make mistakes, meet new people and face new responsibilities. As a result, their priorities may change. A teenager who once valued popularity may later care more about independence or honesty. This does not necessarily mean that the person has become less authentic. In fact, growth may require questioning beliefs that no longer make sense. Perhaps staying true to yourself should not mean remaining exactly the same. It may mean being honest about who you are now, while remaining open to who you may become.
What tension does the text explore?
Why can “stay true to yourself” be misleading?
According to the text, changing priorities can be part of growth.
