We all have a social mask, right? We put it on, we go out, put our best foot forward, our best image. But behind that social mask is a personal truth, what we really, really believe about who we are and what we're capable of.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
We all have split personalities; we all wear masks at some point in our careers.
Masks are wonderfully paradoxical in this way: while they may hide the physical reality, they can show us how a person wants to be seen.
Society puts so much emphasis on outer appearance, but being confident in yourself and not letting others' opinions affect you is pretty amazing.
It is a career of make-believe, of masks. We all have masks in life.
Everyone wants to look their best, everyone has dreams of wanting to look like something else. But we are who we are.
The beauty of social awareness is that a few simple adjustments to what you say can vastly improve your relationships with other people.
Like the character I played in 'Jekyll', we all have different masks we put on for different occasions. As much as we all want to lead decent lives, we're also attracted by the idea that something dark may lurk within us.
Often we're recreating what we think we're supposed to be as human beings. What we've been told we're supposed to be, instead of who we authentically are. The key about the creation of full self-expression is to be authentically who you are, to project that.
Everyone realizes that one can believe little of what people say about each other. But it is not so widely realized that even less can one trust what people say about themselves.
Without wearing any mask we are conscious of, we have a special face for each friend.
