it means to always do what you know is right, like what your comfterabkle with. done do anything just because your friends are doing that. you just have to do what you knoiw is right
never get influenced by anyone because they might not be doing the right thing.
hope this helps ]
Do what you think is right. Try to avoid outside influence for a while so you can think clearly, and then make your decision. Think of the consequences, and the benefits of doing something. In a nutshell, being yourself meens doing something, even though you might get so much negative reputation from it that you lose all of your friends. Fuck idols for a second, and follow your own path. Ask if something your doing is really you, if it's yes, then keep going. If your doing it just impress another person, a crowd, or just fit in... then that is being someone else. They don't like you for who you are, but what you are trying to be. ]
There are many times in life where we'd fit in more with others and be liked by more people if there was something different about us - if we looked different, thought different, had different opinions, different religions, wore different clothing, weighed less, etc. Being true to yourself means ignoring the expectations and desires other have for you and being the person you're comfortable being. It's a hard thing to do because there's so much pressure, but it's the best way to meet people who genuinely like and respect you for who you are. ]
It means you don't lie to yourself. You don't say you're going to do something, and then just not do it. You are your own person. You do what you want to do, not what others want for you (unless you both want the same thing for you). You don't let people push you around and make you look dumb. You stand up for yourself and you're absolutely 100% PROUD of who you are, no matter what other people say or do about it. You do what makes you happy and live life according to your plan.
Does that help?

Do what you feel is right. Follow your intuition/instincts. Be who you want to be, and don't let others have a huge influence on your life. ]
