You are NOT Normal

You are NOT Normal


This is what everyone is going to tell you, that you are ‘not normal’, you are ’strange’, ‘different’, ‘weird’. They will say things like “what are you doing”? and “you can not do that”! or “get a job”! and “think about your future”!

Just smile, continue to be happy and give them the polite middle finger up. During the life, you need to be strong, have fortitude, believe in yourself, your dreams and ambitions.

When you follow your heart and chase your dreams to live your best life takes COURAGE. Courage to stand up against the traditional, conservative system and to live a life very different to that of your family and old friends. Do not expect anyone to comprehend something incomprehensible to them. Do not expect anyone to understand or support a concept which is completely foreign to their groundhog style, mediocre existence. Do not despair, be intelligent : love and understand it for what it is. Those exact same people who say those things to you now, will envy you and come to you for advice in the years to come when they see you basking in the joys of happiness.

Becoming “not normal” is an honor not earned over night. It is a slow transformational process. It starts with the strong desire to break free of traditions and to create your best life. Slowly, with the passing days, months and years, as you keep discovering new depths to your courage as your strive to create your best life, you will inevitably shed yourself of the old school, suffocating thought patterns and begin to see the world and your opportunities from a higher and broader viewing platform. You will think differently, understand what resources are available to you and know that your biggest, most powerful asset is your own, well tamed, focused mind and determined heart.

Be proud of wanting to be different. You do not need to isolate yourself from your old social networks, but in the beginning it may help, at least until you are strong enough and more certain of your path that you are able to be surrounded with the limited, traditional thinking without the danger of slipping back into your old thought patterns and life.

Be proud when someone tells you that you are not normal. It is a compliment because it means that your very non-conventional thought patterns and behaviors are so well developed that they are easily identifiable to strangers who can sense within minutes that you are not like the general population, and that is exactly how you need and want to be to live an unconventional, happy life full of extraordinary events and journey’s.

Let the comment “you are not normal” become the biggest compliment you can be bestowed with. You are perfectly not normal and that is exactly how you want to be!

YOU ARE NOT NORMAL! Love it!

    This is a very meaningful topic. People are often unaware of how their conditioned beliefs distract them from the truth of what they are. One perspective is everyone is a mirror of everyone else. How you respond or behave toward others reflects to what degree you accept or reject self.
