The Inauthentic Us

The Inauthentic Us

All of us conceal our true behaviors to fit into society and to respect social norms.

How bizarre it is if everyone starts to assert their authentic self without any forethought.

  • Burping in a meeting
  • Nose picking in a restaurant
  • Hurling insults to ones you dislike

That’s what self-control is for.
