‘A stand-out performer will always have more value than a stand-in.’- Dave Gordon

Why are you here? Why are you doing what you are doing? Are you living your life?

Remember, you are not here to fit in. You are here to become who you were created to be. You are here to live your life, not to imitate other people.

Imitation is a waste of time. Imitation is fake, not real.

You are better than that. If you want to find yourself, you must belong to yourself; you must embrace who you are, no matter what you are going through in your life.

Do not try to be like other people. When you do that, that is when you get trapped in your comfort zone.

Remember that success does not come to those in their comfort zones. So if you want to stand out, you must get out of your comfort zone.

Why is that? Because success is on the other side of your comfort zone. If you want people to see you, if you want people to help you get better, if you want to make your dreams happen, you need other people.

To meet them, you must get out of your safe zone. Will you do it?

This Is What Happens When “You Follow Others Instead Of Being Yourself”

Benjamin Creme said, “No one can lead you. You are born to be aware of yourself, to know the Master in yourself.” Why are you not comfortable with yourself? Why are you not happy with your life? The answer is simple: because you are not “aware of yourself.” And to be comfortable with yourself, you must know who you are. Do not try to be like another person.

You are not born to imitate other people. You are here on this earth to make your own statement. No matter how you look, to know who you are, you must be aware of yourself. Because no one knows you more than you know yourself. Do not get busy try to defeat another person. Instead, why not focus on making yourself better than you were yesterday? Do not imitate anybody. You have what it takes to do what you are put here to do. According to Benjamin Creme, “If you follow others instead of being yourself, you lose your sparkle and cannot reflect the light of individuality. Without that light, there is no progress in life.” So if you want to reinvent your life, you must follow yourself, not other people.
