Find Your Different

You Are Different

Unlike in nature, form, or quality, different- not the same as another or each other.

Different
Don’t be afraid to stand out.

One of the most challenging things to be in life is different. ut it is in our differences that our true strength lies. We live in a society that bombards us with messages of conformity. It’s what we wear, what we eat, what we buy. In all things, we get the message to fit in, be a part of the system, and don’t stand out! Although there is safety in following along, there is a joy that being different brings. Never be afraid to be different from everyone else; that is where your gold is hidden. Be conscious today of your unique thoughts, words, and actions. Look at your inundated messages telling you to conform to the group and improve.

Beauty of Different

There are billions of people in the world, yet no one is exactly like you. You are unique and one of a kind. It is incredible when you think about it. Of all these people, nobody has the same thoughts, ideas, physical Differentappearance, or abilities that you do. It s important to remember that you are unique because so many people want you to be unoriginal and just a “normal” member of the world. Ple e do NOT believe it. There is beauty in being different. The value of a diamond is the rarity; the value in you is the same.

Life sometimes brings challenges that make you feel like you are just a tiny and ordinary pebble on a beach covered in small and ordinary stones. That s a time of challenge. All c challenges life gives you come with the opportunity for personal growth. Remember that you are a unique and one-of-a-kind treasure when you feel unremarkable or not special. Your thoughts, words, and actions are unique to you, and nobody else can contribute them. Don’t let the unique treasure inside you die on the vine of fear. There s beauty in being different. When w  celebrate the difference in others, we see the difference in ourselves.

Those Who Mind Don’t Matter.

When it comes to being yourself, always notice those attacking your differences. It may e an overt attack that states a general mocking of your unique qualities. But more often, it is a covert operation. Occurring in different subtle, passive-aggressive moments. Quick, direct statements and actions from people you encounter can profoundly affect how different you dare to be. Understand that when you are different, you can pose a threat to some people. Some people e are so unhappy with themselves that they spend a lot of time making sure everyone else feels bad.

Recognize them for what they are, damaged and afraid. Let their words roll off your back. Just because they aren’t happy, don’t let them take your happiness in creating what only you can create. Find the people who are going to encourage your unique self. Those who s e the uniqueness only you possess and spend time with them. Understand that being different is a gift and must be protected and nurtured. Be, do, and pursue the goals you feel in your heart that you should, regardless of how the world labels these things. This is the place in yourself where you will find the treasure you possess.

The World Needs Different

The most important thing to remember is the world needs you to be yourself and unique. There is no need to seek ways to differentiate yourself from the pack. Just by being uniquely you, this will happen. When it makes your contribution to the world will be made. There is a collective story that many of us are taught to believe in our developing years. Go to school, get good grades, graduate, get a job, work for 30 years, retire, and then wait to die. More and more, some people are choosing a different path.

Just because this path would be best to create a society of mindless consumers, it isn’t great for allowing you to be your true unique self. You can see the fear others have whenever a person varies from this path. They are looked on almost as if they are in danger, and they aren’t. In fact, the o ly danger is not following the path that allows them to be different from that collective expectation. Follow your own path, have the courage, and what you create and contribute will make the world better.
