Ask yourself this question. Are you someone who follows the crowd and always does what other people do, or do you think outside the box? It's a deep question, isn't it? Not a judgmental or critical one just a deep one!
Of course, we all like to think that we are following the fashion, and are ‘on trend’ with what our friends are doing, but myself I like to think that I am not a ‘boxed-in’ thinker. While of course, it is important to be ‘in the fashion’ and ‘up to date’ I like to have something different, rather than exactly the same as everyone else.
My mother encouraged us to develop our ‘creativity’. Because she was a dressmaker, she had the world at her fingertips. She made our clothes when we were children and we never had the same as anyone else. Later on, when her sight failed, and she could no longer dressmake, she would buy her clothes from the usual department stores, then come home take the buttons off, and put on a different set just so the garment was different from everyone else's! I always enjoyed seeing what she came up with she was super stylish and very creative.
Has that given you some food for thought? Are you anxious about being exactly the same as everyone else? Does the thought of having to think for yourself cause you serious stress? If the answer is yes, maybe it is time to discover who you really are participate in some life coaching sessions, and be the thinker you want to be.
Thoughts are very powerful, they create our reality. Change your thoughts and you can change your life,
