There's a massive amount of pressure on you.
When you feel like you have to be someone you are not, to act in a different way than what your soul wants you to act like and dress according to standard things can feel pretty off inside. You stop being yourself and you end up being this image of what you "think you should be."
But that's life.
But there's a different way.
When you let go of what you believe that you should be, what the world is trying to tell you to be, and listen to who you are deep down inside true magic begins to happen. Everything is making an attempt to drag you towards the middle where mediocrity lives. You are being told to be a specific way without actually offering up much value to the world.
Unfortunate but true.
The more that you express yourself and the further away from normal you get the more that you begin to feel the gravity of that pull attempting to bring you back in. The rest of the world, as much as they revere those that innovate and change things, doesn't want you to become an outlier. But that's where most innovators passions live - on the fringes. This is where genius lives. That's where vision and dreams live. These are the most unique places in life.
If you're willing to step out into the spotlight and be different than everyone else, there are going to be significant forces at play to make you doubt yourself. Don't listen to the critic inside or the critic outside trying to bring you down. Instead, listen to that wise voice inside of you egging you on to be the person you know you can be.
So chase your dreams and be yourself. Make sure you are doing what you want to do in this life and bringing out the best version of yourself. Sure there will be challenges that come up alone the way, but that comes with playing a big game in life. It's better to be on the field than sitting in the stands.
Be happy with being different.
Make the sacrifices it takes to achieve your dreams. You never can truly know when you will be taken from this place, so you might as well give yourself the best chance feasible to go out with a big bang and begin to make your dreams happen.
