Being Special Isn't So Special

The expections of society 

​Do we really think "​I’m special. I’m unique. I’m doing something different. Look at me. I’m different, right?​"

"Some people are wired to be loners and eccentrics ​ (That's me)​. 

And others are wired for routine. Some enjoy taking risks. Some like stability."

In the United States today the expectations that we get an education, get a "good" job, advance in our careers, make good income or become rich, ad infinitum, has raised stress and unhappiness levels​.  

"The implication is always the same: What have YOU done lately?​"

"You don’t have to prove anything to anybody, including yourself.​"

​This article​ helps provide insight into this dilemma.
