Emulate

Emulate

See yourself as someone others will emulate
Don't be naïve in thinking you don't influence those around you
Don't be arrogant in thinking you influence everyone
Don't see emulation as a conflict with authenticity
Change the things in you that you don't want others to copy
Improve the things in you that others find attractive
Learn new things and change for the better as you live by example
Look for your Self within the actions of those close to you
Do this to become a better person and be okay knowing you will never be perfect
Recognize who you are emulating, and accept or reject according to your intentions
