They say that re-inventing the wheel and being original is impossible. It’s all been done before. No room for any imagination then?
But being you, the real you is not impossible. And as soon as you step on to that stage, (and I mean video, stage or page) you become the one and only original you.
Then you know – your Difference is Your Superpower.
Many people have been pushed off and put off from the straight and narrow life because of their unconventional approach. Some have even been punished!
Perhaps you have struggled with this idea during your life? Believing that you are different and didn’t fit in, so you covered up, buried and forgot about your talents.
Well, now it’s time to embrace your uniqueness and recognise that Difference is Your Superpower.
-The fear of being different prevents most people from seeking new ways to solve their problems – Robert T. Kiyosaki
Does being different fill you with fear because you will stand out or even stand alone? Maybe you feel that being different will cause you to be ostracised, separated, even locked up?
And in certain cultures especially where religion has a stronghold, there are huge restrictions and even laws governing the tight control of anyone stepping outside the norm –
But let’s look at all the positives of standing up in your own shoes and sharing your unique take on life, love and business.
-People say you are going the wrong way when it’s simply a way of your own – Angeline Jolie
Just remember some of those most successful people were those that didn’t fit in. But they stood their ground and developed their unique talents.
They went on to find their own path, their own way of creating their brand, product and service.
From Rosa Parks, Malala Yousafzai and Gabourey Sidibe

Yes, this is a very important issue.
Nature has made us uniquely different. Yet, most cultures and religions want to teach and compel us to be very similar. Of course, for easier control.
Uniqueness and individuality lives in everyone and it should not be suppressed. As you write, we are all unique. Individuals are able and willing to exist in communities. This apparent contradiction causes misunderstanding.
We learn from each other and we are interdependent but in our individuality. We live in the same world but interpret it differently and this is the key to getting to know it. Yes, every human being needs the other along with its own unique features. Thank you for bringing this important topic to my attention.
