Do Your Friends Call You Weird?

As a child it is hard when you’re not accepted by your peers. Most kids, if not all, want to be a part of a group or clique’ but because people by nature can be cruel, there is always a group of kids who are labeled different or weird.

They are called that because they don’t fit in with everyone else. They may not be considered cool, trendy or popular. And to tell the truth, they’re not. They don’t do what the other kids do. They are not like everyone else.

But what about you? Do your friends call you weird? They should be. You should be doing things that they’re not willing to do and are unlike the norm. Your daily actions should be different then theirs and it should be out of the ordinary.

The word weird in the dictionary means of strange or extraordinary character.

I wonder are your actions and habits strange or of extraordinary character or are you just like everyone else?

When your friends are reading sports and fashion magazines or romance novels or sci-fi books, you should be reading a lot of personal development books. When your friends are looking for a government handout in the form of a stimulus check, you should be working to have a profitable business. When your friends are rushing home to see their favorite TV show, you should be cutting off the TV and writing good content for your blog. When your friends are on the phone dishing out the latest gossip, you should be networking with the movers and shakers in your industry.

You shouldn’t be doing what is trendy or popular. You shouldn’t be doing what everyone else is doing.

Millionaires aren’t trendy people. They set the trends and others follow.

You see what you believe is true and if you think the economy is bad and you’re going to struggle, you will. But if you think like a successful person, you will look for the opportunity regardless of what the economy is doing. You will not be doing what everyone else is doing and you will act like a weirdo.

So the next time you want to fit in, DON’T unless it’s with a bunch of millionaires. Then and only then will it be okay to conform to the group. Other than that run from the crowd, be different, strange, be a weirdo.

To YOUR Success,
