What Does Authentic Mean?
Seth Godin defines authentic inwards relation to consistency. Recently, he defined it every bit "consistent emotional labor."
I handgrip alongside this definition. If I may refine it, I would define the authentic act/behavior every bit that which causes guilt/unrest, if you lot don't produce it.
If you lot don't human activity every bit your authentic self, you lot experience every bit if you lot shortchanged yourself, you lot experience guilt in addition to pain.
This doesn't hateful that doing the authentic human activity is non painful. (After all if it is non painful, it is non worth doing. It is trivial.) Authentic agency that if you lot don't produce it, it is every bit good painful because it causes guilt in addition to unrest.
At to the lowest degree if you lot human activity every bit your authentic self, you lot honour peace eventually through your hurting of labor.
This is precisely how I experience virtually writing in addition to research.
This is likely how entrepreneurs experience virtually starting businesses. It is painful, only they cannot non produce it. This is every bit good how athletes experience virtually training; it hurts only they cannot non produce it.
So, in War of Art writer Steven Pressfield's terms, authentic agency existence motivated territorially rather than hierarchically, inwards spite of how difficult the resistance pushes you lot back.
We telephone phone a build or a soul authentic when they're consistent, when they human activity the same way whether or non someone is looking. Someone is authentic when their actions are inwards alignment alongside what they promise.
Showing upward every bit a pro.
Keeping promises.
Even when you lot don't experience similar it.
Especially when you lot don't.
