Individuality is being yourself, and expressing and sharing that individuality with the world. That means standing your ground, and being true to yourself. It means doing what you really want to do, in the way you really need to do it, to make yourself happy — rather than doing what others prefer, expect, or even demand, just to keep them happy. And it means doing that regardless of the judgement or conflict that might invite from others.

That’s not being selfish — that's perfect self-expression, and you really have no choice.

You are an exceptionally unique individual. There has never been, nor will there ever be, any other person in human history who has the same life experience, skills, or personality you have. No matter what you do, or how you share it — you have every right to express yourself in whatever way best suits who you are as a person.

In your purpose, individuality matters. It's what makes your dream different from everyone elses. Sure, you can still live the exact same hobby, business, or career as everybody esle. But how you live it — what you wear, what you do, how you talk, who you are — will always be different.

As it should be, because that’s what makes life interesting. It's your point of difference. It's how you create, innovate, entertain, uplift, and inspire others. It makes you feel fulfilled, important, and feeds your soul. It also gives you an edge in business.

And in a world of conformity and AI corporate slop, your authenticity is what people will love about you the most — and if it's a business, they'll pay you handsomely for it.

The gift you share with the world is yourself. 

Not only will that help you overcome any feelings of depression and resentment, but it also adds a lot more fulfilment, individuality, and importance back into your life.
