Individuality is Independence

Individuality

Life is one big narrative. Narratives come from the experiences of others, and some narratives are uniquely ours. There are emotions attached to each one. Everyone’s story is unique, whether you grasp life’s opportunities or sit on the side of the road without a nickel to your name.

Identical twins have unique fingerprints and their individual story. Siblings can grow up in the same home, attend the same schools and still have individual experiences. Every breath taken, and every move made, we’re narrating the next episode. No matter what, human beings will write their very own unique life story.

No one can be the poster child for your story. Our choices make us the narrator, editor, author, and the actor. In the grand scheme of things, all the money in the world backing an elaborate Hollywood premier, amazing characters, and a global stage, with accolades, couldn’t minimize your life story. You are unique.

Today’s success is tomorrow’s old news

Your great-grandchildren will have difficulty with commonality because the socially acceptable people seen today are tomorrow’s old news. For this reason, we consider life a gift and not a guarantee. You never realize this until you discover someone like Earl Nightingale.

Earl Nightingale said, “Success is the progressive realization of a worthy ideal”.

Earl Nightingale never mentioned money or fame. In fact, he said they were temporary and easily replaced, but we can never replace the things we received for free. e.g. friendships, family, minds, bodies…

Therefore, a man enjoying his work can become a success with very little. e.g. A man who hand crafts surfboards for a living. Of course, there are companies who mass produce surfboards on assembly lines with factory workers. However, personal success comes from creativity and inner peace. It derives from things that bring us the most joy. The things that we would easily do for free. Everyone should strive to do this but inadvertently find themselves, compared to others, depressed and working in that factory’s assembly line.

What do you believe?

Do you feel good when someone believes in you? Faith is persistence without the loss of enthusiasm. You believe, therefore; you persist. We all need someone and something to believe in. It motivates us to take action. God comforts many and brings peace through their faith in him.

Your mind is alive with living thought. Those thoughts manifest real things which affect your life. You were born with a purpose, like a standard desktop computer designed with all the apps. Artificial Intelligence can’t come close to what you are and what you can achieve.

What we believe about ourselves is crucial to our wellbeing. All of our inspiration, wisdom, and strength come from what we believe. All of our heartache, weakness, and doubts as well. If we believe in nothing, we become nothing.

No one can impose beliefs on you. It’s always your choice to accept any belief in your life. An example would be this article’s message. Some will read this and ignore it completely. Either way, many beliefs or stories limit our ability to grow and, therefore should change. It’s these types of stories or narratives we tell ourselves played over in our mind, that determine outcomes, and not the day-to-day objectives.

Happy Independence Day

Confession is good for the soul because it’s a shared story. It’s a story that can bring healing to the listener. It unburdens the confessor from worry, fear, and anxiety. Learn to forgive yourself and others for false narratives.

Nobody will live long enough to learn everything, have everything, and do everything. You will not live forever, so pass the baton. If you’re a teacher, a good parent, a pianist, or a writer, just pass the baton.

Comparing your story to others will only minimize self-worth. There’s a storyteller in all of us. What do you choose to believe about yourself? Make a masterpiece of your life’s story.
