Philosophy Wire: Be… you! Can you not?

At work, it's healthier and more productive just to be yourself, according to a new study. [1] Many studies say the same thing. Many psychologists too. “Be yourself”. But wait a minute. Can you ever be… not yourself? Even when you lie, even when you are pretending, even when you are hiding what you think or at the moments you are doing something else than what you want to do… You are you! Wanting to lie. Wanting to pretend something else, not doing what you want to do because you want to do something else… Be proud. Do not let yourself drive you away from… you! And remember… A liar is lying when he is telling the truth… Are you brave enough to accept yourself?
