Question:
We always hear the phrase Just Be Yourself, well how do you know who you are?
I have some problems with that, sometimes i think i'm one way, and other times im someone different. well, kind of. lol.
Answer:
I don't know about other people but being yourself is just acting yourself. you don't need to copy others or BE like others.
Answer:
I know I'm myself, because I act as weird as I damn well please, and if people don't like it, I just carry on being weird. Because as the Dr.Seuss quote says those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind
I know I'm me, because I don't follow what everybody does. In fact, I'm particularly attracted to things/or the way of doing things that is slightly out of the ordinary. Makes life more fun.
Answer:
i know i'm me when i'm different from everyone else. i don't copy them, i just follow my own opinions. to be yourself is to be U.

Answer:
I just think of it as... don't pay attention to what people think of you.
Don't stop acting weird if it's just because other people are like omg what a loser.
Answer:
it's basically
being comfortable in your skin
be proud of who your are, and show it
and just.. be yourself! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
Answer:
you are not being yourself when you are feeling uncomfortable doing something
but most people step out of character once in a while in order to fit in better, for better or worse. that's normal.
usually...adolesents and adults are never completely themself because we arent innocent or naive like childern or sometimes retards(no offence of course).
ok..this is from my own personal views on being your self and is very un-soompi, never feel completely comfortable in your own skin. if i do...i ll feel like i ll fly away or loose myself because to me, im too perfect. it's like not being able to get hurt...i would feel like im living in a world with nothing but air.
Answer:
[font=Arial]We always hear the phrase Just Be Yourself, well how do you know who you are?
You don't. Figuring out who you are is what you do in life.
When people say be yourself they mean that you should question everything around you, and if you think something's off, wrong, just wierd, or you don't like it, then it isn't you. You don't agree with it. If you haven't questioned anything yet, then you're not yourself yet. You're just what other people and things are impressing upon you. Which isn't to say that you are free from the influence of others, but it's the difference between wearing a clothing brand because your friends wear it and you just never thought about whether it looks good on you, makes sense to spend that much money on this type of clothing, and whether you even actually like the way it fits or looks on you or not, and realizing that you're wearing the brand because your friends wear it and you like them, want to be like them, and don't mind if you look exactly like them.
*shrugs* I think it's simple.
You are the person who has thought about what how you act/the things you believe in and agrees with it. You are not the person who has just simply gone with the flow forever and never put a single thought into it.
Like Tetra hinted upon, you can be the person who has thought about the way they act/the things they believe in and decided that going with the flow is the best option - that not thinking at all and just following others is the best course.
Answer:
being yourself is when you don't try to act like someone else.
when you don't feel ashamed.
and you're comfortable.
Answer:
i dont know,i just act what im comfortable with.
Answer:
To me be myself is when I don't want what other people have and
when I don't give a fly about what other people think about me.
Answer:
If you feel like you SHOULD do something, act a certain way or like something just because of another person/other people, then you're not going to be yourself.
Do what you do, like what you like, and don't act any way or do something just cause other people want you to.
Answer:
Being yourself is when you are doing something and you don't care what other people think.
As opposed to not being yourself is when you are overly cautious about waht the people around you think and then you act differently.
Answer:
that is so hard to do, at least in my case. because even if I dont intend to, at times when I act, I always think of what others will think of me.
kinda like the phrase: I am what I think you think I am...
[ah, that didnt even answer your question]

Some people are comfortable with copying others without caring what others think...yet...others tell them to be themselves.
Answer:
