Oh boy! I'm so thrilled I didn't miss this truthful and exquisite piece of advice, Gareth! I kept smiling peacefully while reading your gems of words, and I know that I'm investing my time effectively whenever some works have such an impact on me!

For a quick story, I once saw a post (among many similar other ones) on another famous platform and was shocked, to say the least...

Not only of the person who shared it but also of all the "motivators" and "influencers" who were joining the woman in her thoughts/claims.

She was telling the story of her visit to the beauty center after the lockdown. She expressed how much she was not feeling herself during the lockdown, and claimed how important first impressions were.

She even dared ask the audience whether "they were what they wore". 😳 And guess what? She got many CONFIRMATIONS!

I was like "You must be kidding me 😮 Did you forget about the promoted authenticity? How possibly can you miss the inconsistency folks?"

Let me give you a fact: the "motivation" hashtag is followed by 15,745,843 individuals. The "responsible" & "accountable" hashtags didn't reach 750 followers TOGETHER.

Such a tendency is heartbreaking, frankly...
