Maybe you just need to stop being yourself!
Advice to "just be yourself" abounds. Individuality is applauded and encouraged all over the Internet and in the classroom. But is it a good idea?
Not if being yourself fails to lead to your goals and objectives. Not if being yourself annoys other people. Not if being yourself violates other people's rights!
Better advice would be to become the self that helps you move toward your goals!
If being yourself doesn't work, don't keep trying it. Try something else!
