“Those who fit in now won’t stand out later. Those who follow the rules are never noticed – because the system has broken their spirit. There’s plenty of work for the undifferentiated masses, so you can have as much of that as you are willing to handle. The fast-rising stars are those who question authority and refuse to do what’s been done before.”
I was lucky to be reminded of who I am today by two friends. I do not fit into a cookie cutter – and that’s okay. In fact – it’s more than okay – it’s where my power comes from. I will not be molded to fit any one image – and it’s not even necessary for me to try. It’s in my very nature to stand apart from the crowd. And it turns out that’s not such a bad thing after all.
