We've all been in this situation where we put on a mask to impress people by pretending to be someone we are not. These masks are usually subconcious, they derive from the inner mind. When a mind takes control it casues the ego to grow, this causes one to feel like they have to do anything in their power to become better than everyone else, or to become like the other person. This can be caused by the lack of confidence in ones self. Other causes can be anything from jealousy to insecurity.
You were created to live on this physical plain along with billions of other beings, we are all unique and that is why you should never doubt who you are. Many people are great at masking themselves. You may not notice it all the time, but it occurs everywhere; college, work, even at home. It is just the way we have been brought up to believe in society, dont be afraid to be yourself.
A way to prevent this subconcious mask from manifesting is to imagine yourself not as a physical entity, but picture yourself as being connected to everyone else in this planet. We are all equal as energy beings. There is no point striving to become someone when you are already there, you are already someone, be that someone!
Do not overrate what you have received, nor envy others. He who envies others does not obtain peace of mind.- Buddha
