Why do people always try to ask "How do I not appear ________" or "How do I be more ______". I guess this is more of a rant. But people should just be who they are. I don't see why people would want to pretend to be someone else.

I agree with you, but in the same breath I wish I could be more decisive and assertive

I totally disagree. People should always strive to better themselves. Sometimes this means changing undesirable traits. Sometimes it means exploring new things and taking up new interests or hobbies.
I have never been happier since I realised it’s ok to be myself. Now I don’t give a rats what people think about me, it used to eat me up inside. I don’t quite know how it happened or when, but it feels good.
I used to always feel inferior, like I had to be better than I was or do things that I “should” be doing (i.e. marriage, kids, better job etc), but I like my life just the way it is, and even if that’s not ok with everyone else, it’s ok with me and that’s all that matters.
Nearly everyone wants to put their best foot forward. It's very rare that someone is totally content with just being themselves, and having everyone know about their worst traits.
In fact, they say a little dissatisfaction is occasionally necessary in life, to keep you moving forward. If you truly are content, right where you are, then there's no impetus to grow and evolve.
Sometimes you have to act in a certain role to win the game!
There is no game playing in life, relationship and love.
