having gained a little more maturity I have found a lot of value in that little phrase, adding a different value to the things we do and perform, these days, gives us something special.
And this is true. In the business sense, the difference between this business and that business is measured in terms of the value they give to customers. It gives us something special as you said.
In a world where we are taught or are intended to be taught to all think alike, to dress alike, in general, to do everything alike; to dedicate oneself to cultivate oneself, in a character trait with a difference, could generate success.
And this speaks volumes, no matter how much we want to shy away from it. In this world, we are trained to be robots, with similar mechanical advantages...such a boring world.
I celebrate the differences, I really love them. But as I was saying, society, in general, does not like anyone to step out of the norm, society does not like the status quo to be broken. People who are prepared to be different will be the ones who make a mark and leave a mark in what they do and what they undertake.
If you notice you will see that those who choose to be different are looked upon with awe and pleasure. That is because the overall society doesn't appreciate that, so anyone who cannot break away from the confinements, rules, and norms provided by the society is a demi-god to the rest of the humans.
By this I don't mean being flamboyant, but simply different. Being different is not made for everyone, since in general terms it is very difficult to be labeled as "different" since it is not easy to withstand the judging looks of people, being different is made for those who want to be different, at least that is what I believe.
You do not necessarily have to believe it because it is true. Not everyone is supposed to be different. They can only be a few of those who want to.
