Much of life is an exercise in conformity.
Standing out from the crowd takes effort, and it is also a risk. What will our friends, coworkers and community think? School and society mold us into a shadow of who we could be, and this is why conformity is dangerous.
We need to stike out on our own, and we need to take the first step. We need to find our interests and passions, and pursue these. Without passion, we will sink into our lowest common denominator state. Conformity is rot.
A lifetime of conformity will lead us to be the product of those who wish to control us and the narrative of mediocity. Take the bull by the horns and make your own mark.
