Why you should be original
Why you should be original
It's a pity we now live in a world where everyone desperately wants to be like another person, in the process, they lose their originality.
They want to do things, behave, copy all the traits of another person without knowing that they have a unique personality in their self
On the other note, it is not wrong to admire other people's lifestyle and to take a piece of them, in fact, copying and pasting some parts of their life into yours can lead to your improvement and growth
That's where the case of a role model comes in: when you have someone you look up to and want to emulate in some aspects
This is good and acceptable!
But it goes wrong when you lose your originality in the process
Originality in the sense that you forget that you have an inbuilt quality that is different from other people's own
Losing your originality means you end up copying other's lifestyle then forgetting your essence
At this stage, you lose your values gradually, you forget what and who you are, you begin to think like others think, all because you have lost your originality while trying to emulate someone else
Right from creation; God created man with a uniqueness that is different from another man, so that means you have something that someone else doesn't
And for you to explore that thing in you, you need to stay original, be yourself!
Be yourself, the world worships your originality~Jugrid Bergman
You can share similarities with other people but you still need to maintain that person you are
Let's see some reasons why you need to be original
1) That's how God can be glorified in your life
God can only bless you with something that fits your personality but when you are busy trying to be like someone else, that kind of blessing wouldn't work for you
~Bernard Meltzer
2) You have a sense of fulfillment and satisfaction
Have you noticed that when you do things in your way, you feel comfortable?
You'll be overwhelmed with your progress.
There is a satisfaction that comes from within when you see yourself doing things well and not depending on another person
You can relate, can't you?
Exactly!
That's what you get when you stay original!
3) You attract the right kind of relationship
When you are real and not pretending, you'll attract the right kind of people, people who will bring a positive influence into your life
They will see that you are genuine and that you are honest in what you are doing
There are so many things that your originality will bring to you
You can learn from others and become a better person but don't lose your originality in the process
Live a real-life and be yourself!
Stay Jiggy!
