Aspire to be Different

Be Different

But the question is, how?

We’re all different and we’re all striving to be different.

No one’s going to change the world if they’re just like everybody else.

Being different requires hard work, it requires sacrifice, it requires dedication and above all else, it requires courage.

Aspire to be different. It's a simple concept that means to want something more, to desire something better. It's human nature.

Aspiration is an attitude, it’s a feeling, it’s a determination to succeed. We all had it when we were children, we all had that moment of wonder, curiosity and innocence.

What do I wish for you? I wish that in your heart you feel that way again. I wish that at this moment you decide to aspire to be different.

Be happy every day.

Discover something new every day.

Explore the world and everything in it, because you never know what you will find.

Be curious. Be playful. Be inventive. And most importantly be kind… all the time

Have fun everyday.

Be a kid again, even if it's only for a moment.

Appreciate beauty, let it fill your heart and feed your soul with happiness and joy.

Not everything is going to go the way you want it to go, so accept what life delivers with gratitude and grace. That’s how you become an adult with integrity, with an open mind and heart and a sense of wonder about life as it unfolds around you.

Learn something new everyday whether you are reading about business, about love or science, or about philosophy because knowledge will expand your mind and make your life richer. Be open to everything in this world even if sometimes it feels uncomfortable or even painful; because then you can grow from that experience as well.

Aspiration is what you want, not what you have and certainly not where you are. It's a spark that makes us strive to be better, make us reach higher than we thought possible.

It's not always easy and there will always be people who doubt our ability to make it happen. But that's when we strengthen our resolve and fight even harder for the life we imagine for ourselves.

Aspire to be different. To truly be great, we must dream boldly and live with purpose. Aspire to be different by going after the things that matter most and keeping an eye on the horizon.

Whoever tells you that success comes easily is lying to you. You have to do the work to see results, because nothing worth having ever comes easy.

Aspire to be different.

Everyone in the world is different. Some people are tall, some are short. Some are happy, others are sad. Some are introverts, others are extroverts. And so on. But despite this variation, it’s often become a common tendency to focus on similarities (i.e., to “fit in”).

This can be seen in things like fashion, where people try to dress like the people around them, or in academia where students try to find “common ground” with their classmates. However, despite our many commonalities, the differences that make us unique—these are what propel us forward.

Go ahead and be different

After all, it is those who aspire to be different that drive the world forward. It’s the dreamers that dream up new ideas. It’s the rebels that rebel against tradition.

Being different is great. Aspiration is the feeling that drives you to be better and better, no matter how good you already are

It’s a feeling that can not be forced. It just comes naturally.

We all want to be different, as individuals, but it's hard to break away from society's mold and yearn for something more.

This change happens through recognizing our worth and acting on it. We don't have to look like anyone else, or have something that others have, or be like everyone else. We don't have to follow the masses. We can be different. Society has a way of showing us that if we don't look a certain way or follow their rules that we are not worth anything, but they're wrong.

True confidence comes from knowing who you are, not what you wear. True confidence comes from who you love and how you live your life. True confidence has no color; it is how you see the world. Being different is not something we chose--it is who we are and why should be celebrated.
