Are you weird?

A lot of our unique weirdness is exactly what were shamed the most for when we were children.

Definitely, in my childhood, I looked at how I was weird. I was like, "Wow this is a terrible curse." I actually experienced pain for my uniqueness. It's human nature.

Like, "Ow that hurt, I expressed my weirdness, I got rejected, I will not do that again." So we posture ourselves away from rejection towards what? Approval.
So what do you have to do to get someone's approval? Please them. What you have to do to please a person? Typically act like them.

The most pervasive disease that inflicts humanity is the disease of being normal. I don't think that anybody's ever achieved an extraordinary life in terms of quality and success by excelling at normalcy. 

Think of someone that you really admire. It might be a celebrity. It might be someone in your personal life. It doesn't matter. Just think of someone you really admire. I almost can guarantee there is something weird about this person, or else you wouldn't have ever noticed them, and therefore you wouldn't be admiring them.

What I used to call a curse, I'm like, "Wow! This is actually a beautiful gift." Is a shift f perspective. In order to express your inner genius that is your weirdness, I do believe you have to be willing to risk uncertainty and vulnerability. It has to be a challenge to be expressed. It has to be a challenge to find it, or else it won't have meaning.

I dream of a world where we can express yourself, experience yourself, and embody the unique creativity of your own being. It might just seem that expressing weirdness on your life could be the worst thing you could ever do, and it might be, but what if its one of the things you could ever do to yourself?

Think out of the box. Don't be afraid to be weird, to be different from others. There is nothing wrong in moving toward your dreams in your own way, in your own time.

What if the great minds of our history had deprived themselves of being weird? Imagine how could have happened.

We're all weird in certain ways. Some are ashamed of it, some are not. As much as some people don't like to take risks, there are people that deprive themselves of expressing their ideas because they're afraid of being weird.


Those who take risks have either chance of loose or win. Those who express themselves have the chance of being rejected or being brilliant. It is your call!
