What makes you different makes you unique, and that’s a good thing. Be bold and be different. You are unique, so embrace your differences and show the world your true self. 

Have you felt you stood out in every room you walked into – and not in a good way? Can you list out your flaws? Have you stopped to ask yourself why you are so different and not like everyone else? You are different because you are unique. 

Be different and show your uniqueness to the world.

Have you ever considered that the reason you are different is not that you don’t fit in but that you stand out? Stop feeling like what makes you different make you inadequate. Instead, focus on your skills, talents, and your strength. In other words, focus on your difference. One way to appreciate your differences is self-love. Stop waiting for approval and love every inch of yourself. You don’t have to feel worthy, beautiful, or perfect enough. Anyone’s standards did not create you.

Your differences are there to help others.

Sometimes, that difference is there to uplift another person in a similar situation. So be different, focus on others, and help them grow. Help them see they are not alone and that they are special. Appreciate the differences of others and, when you can, give everyone a chance. Some people need an opportunity to shine. Because you have felt what it is to be different, you can help them shine. 

Your differences are waiting for the work.

Other times, the difference is there for you to work on it. Nothing will change unless you go to work. Take time out to refine yourself. Focus on the details. Make yourself a big deal and do the work. It might be training, exercise, or even a reinvention that you need. What are you made of? Are you working towards redefining yourself, or are you sitting down, waiting for things to happen? You are unique and always will be, but if your differences bring you pain, you can change it- but never strive to strip your uniqueness. 

We need diversity in the world, so be different and shine.

Finally, see that the world needs you to be different. There is strength in differences, not in similarities. What makes you different, brings diversity to the world. Life will be boring when we are all the same – the same thinking, body shape, color, style, etc.
