BE ALL YOU CAN BE!
''Be Yourself. Everyone Else Is Taken!"

• WHY Does the army use this slogan?
• Notice
• How fast did we go when we used our own names?
• How fast did we go when we used our neighbors
  name?
• How fast did we go when we chose a cartoon
  character?
• Why were the times different?
• How easy is it for us to look like, be and act
  like someone else? WHY?
• How does this slow our own personal growth down?
• How hard is it to not compare ourselves and in
  what areas do we do this?
• Once we stop trying to be somebody else, we can
  spend more time developing ourselves. The
  dissatisfaction we feel with ourselves comes from
  when we compare ourselves to others.
