Don't be a poser, don't be "yourself", struggle with God to be the image of Jesus Christ, use prayer, the Sacraments, good spiritual direction, the grace of God, and lots of beginning again to be "perfect, as Your Heavenly Father is perfect."

Up the inclined plane, cheerfully, in a manly or womanly way.  Sporting spirit, with God right next to you. 

Don't shoot low by "being yourself".  Convert, daily.
