Be Yourself Everyone Else Is Already Taken: Mike Robbins




Dr. Steve Maraboli show

Summary: Steve is joined by author and acclaimed speaker Mike Robbins for a powerful conversation about his book, Be Yourself Everyone Else Is Already Taken. Authenticity is the buzz word of the moment. “Be true to yourself.” “Be your real self.” “Be the person you were meant to be.” The message is loud and clear. Or is it? There is pressure from all around (family, friends, co-workers, the media, and society at large) telling us it’s more important to be liked and to fit in than it is to be who we truly are. We're also constantly bombarded with messages telling us that we aren’t good enough and need to be fixed. This exciting and liberating new book presents simple yet effective ways to exercise the power of authenticity in your relationships, work, and life. The ideas, principles, and practices laid out in the book give you specific techniques which allow you to express yourself fully and with confidence, confront and transform fear, deal with conflicts directly and effectively, take risks and go for what you truly want, and have more freedom and confidence in your work, your relationships, and your life.
