"I decided to start anew — to strip away what I had been taught, to accept as true my own thinking."American Painter

By the time we reach adulthood, we have subconsciously learned a lot about the expectations of the people in our lives — our family, our teachers and our friends. And we often try to live our lives as others want us to live and work. The problem comes in when we fail to live up to those expectations. Some people spend unhappy lives trying to please others. A few creative leaders are able to shake off the expectations of others and discover their true self. Who are you? Are you trying to please your family, friends and teachers? Or have you discovered the person who you are meant to be? Turning your back on what you were taught can be very difficult. Letting go of the past can be very traumatic, but if you want to attain the person you were meant to be, you must find your own voice.
