I believe that being different, being your true self, and doing what is meaningful, is the most important thing a person can do to change their life and the world for the better. Having the courage to carve our own paths sets us free from the confines of what already is, and gives space for the endless possibilities the universe offers. The world makes it way too easy for us to conform and be an exact replica of what already exist, but we can’t go on being who we have always been and expect a different result. If we’re going to turn things around for the better, we have to be willing to continuously question what is normal and allowed.  We have to question what our values and belief systems are, we have to know why these beliefs are there and if they are really ours, or they have been imposed by the outside world. When we figure out our uniqueness, our deepest truth, and offer it to the world, we have the power to influence the world and transform our lives for the better. There has never been you, here at this specific time and location in the cosmos. You are a miracle here to express something only you can. Being different is something to be proud of because it’s how the rules are redefined. To get the sincere version of ourselves to come out and play means questioning, exploring, being open minded, and taking risks. 

If there’s something about yourself or the world that you dislike, start breaking the rules, start looking at the connection between what you think and what you consume and the environment you're in. Try something different, consider changing, try being just a little more honest with the most intimate parts of yourself. There’s is always a connection between what we choose and our state of being.  Everything is a choice. Choose to be uniquely you and serve the world with a bold statement of whatever it is your heart wants you to express.
