UNIQUE

UNIQUE

It might be a trite saying that you should be unique, you might have heard it countless times, but the truth is, it can never be overstated. The admonition to be unique will always be as relevant as it is the first time you heard about it. If you would set a trail for others to follow, you must be unique.

Most people do not become what they should be, because they want to be like someone else, they trade their originality on the table of the appreciation of another person they consider a role model, mentor, or leader. Such people have failed to realise that there is no two people on earth with the same mission. You might work in the same organisation, on the same project, in the same team, but your mission and purpose are different.

The best anyone can be and should be is the best version of their self and not the second grade of another person. If you fail to be who you should become, who will fill your space? Who will be what you should be? If you fail to be who you should be, you would have created a void that can never be filled by anyone else.

Emma Stone ones said, “What sets you apart can sometimes feel like a burden and it’s not. And a lot of the time, it’s what makes you great.” You can not be like others, do what others do, and expect to be great, greatness comes with being different, being unique, doing what others would not do, and be comfortable with it even if it is not easy. Be UNIQUE, that is what you are.
