“Eccentricity is one of those English traits that looks like frailty but masks a concealed strength; individuality disguised as oddity.“

~ Ben Macintyre (A Spy Among Friends: Kim Philby and the Great Betrayal)

People remember those who aren’t normal. Especially, those with weird hobbies, strange quirks or deep and unusual passions.

Embracing these differences can help you find your tribe and lead you to inspiration. 

They also give you a unique outlook on the world; creating an advantage and the foundation for an interesting life. No one is going to tell stories about the guy who acts like everyone else. 

Conforming with the crowd feels safe, but it has limited upside. 

Rather be different. Be brave. Be you. 

Lean into what makes you unique. Who wants to be normal anyway?
