Unique And Different!

We are all are unique and different for many reasons and that's great. Sometimes validation goes a long way - and with that in mind I share this with you!

Steps

1.
Don't read this to 'learn' how to be unique; everyone is unique and different. Just be yourself that's the key to being unique.

2.
Do things for the right reason. In other words try to find things you really enjoy like a hobby or sport and participate in them. You'll tend to meet people that you are more in tune with when you are going places you love to go and doing things you love to do.

3.
Dress for yourself. Avoid trying to dress to please others, it may attract certain people into your life but not necessarily the ones that really resonate with you; they'll be seeing an entirely different you and it prevents any real connection.

4.
Don't think that being alone means that you are lonely. If you feel like being on your own don't think of yourself as weird or a loner. When you are in a situation that leaves you alone without it being your choice try not to think about what you could be doing with others and what they are doing; this only leads to dissatisfaction. Do something that needs quiet while there are no distractions around. Enjoy the freedom of being able to do things without eyes watching.

5.
Labels don't mean ANYTHING. Buy stuff because you like it, want it look good in it and most important of all because you NEED IT!!! If you want to be unique avoid buying something just for the label because that's what everyone else is doing.

6.
Be aware of your own emotions. Try not to be influenced by other people's emotions. Spending too much time thinking about other people's thoughts can lead you away from your own.

7.
Know Your Opinions while being open to suggestion. Don't say something for the sake of saying it. Take a moment after a conversation is struck up to think about what you know and what resonates with you then begin talking. Try to listen to what other people are saying without being taken in and without immediately casting aside their ideas.

Tips
•
No matter how much money you have or how well dressed you are the most important thing you can wear is a smile. Smiles can make someone’s day a little brighter.

•Just be yourself. Everyone's different already so it doesn't take much effort.
•Search for a unique hobby or interest and be proud of it! But don't pick one just because it's unique. You must really love it in order for people to believe you!
•Learn something valuable from everyone you meet.

Warnings

•So you have found the courage to be yourself. Enjoy being yourself and happy with who you are. But avoid trying to push your ideas onto your friends - you will just all end up looking the same again.
•Do not try so hard to be unique that you give the impression of being "different for the sake of being different". This is not becoming of anyone as it just comes across as fake.
•If you get called names, ridiculed or bullied for being unique or even just for having an opinion. Ignore it!

Uniquely yours,

PS: Standing out from the crowd is being unique:
