Friends we always like to follow someone’s style in life. It may be hair style, dressing, talking, behavior etc. It may be your favorite actor/actress or your favorite cricketer or your favorite politician. We want to be like them always.
From childhood many times it is said study like him/her, play like him/her, sing like him/her etc. It is taught from childhood to follow someone else. We think by following someone we will be great. But that’s totally wrong. By copying someone we kill our originality. Our own personality can not develop properly. Deep inside there is growing a lack of fulfilment.
In the garden there are many variety of flowers. All are different in color and perfume. If they blossom naturally it increases the beauty of the garden. If one flower try to be like another it will destroy the beauty. In an orchestra every body has its specialty. Nobody is lesser than other. If they perform together it increases the beauty of the melody. Everybody’s support must be required for a great melody creation.
Like that every politician can not be great leader. If anybody copy the style of great leader and dress like him, walk like him, talk like him he can’t be the great leader but people will laugh at him for his foolishness. When any body try to be like some body he becomes miserable. Because he is opposing his own body structure and independent thoughts.
Psychology says many of mad person has come to that stage by copying other and could not succeed. Every human being only uses 10% of his physical and mental efficiency. If any body can use his full efficiency he can become a special person in his own field. He can draw attention of others by being himself.
It is natural to be yourself. First study yourself and know your physical structure, mental strength, wish, your environment, situations and it will be easy to be yourself. You will get peace and satisfaction if you know yourself better and can develop your qualities and strengths. If you follow others you will never feel satisfied. You should accept your disability too. If you can change any qualities within you then change it otherwise accept as it is. For example many people feel ashamed of their bald head, but there are many bald person who are very successful in their respective fields. Baldness never affects their lives. You should learn to accept your body as it is and try to make it beautiful in its own way. If you feel good, you look good remember that.
First of all know yourself and be yourself. Life is about to create yourself. In this world everybody has some specialty and everybody has it’s special place. Try to be master in your own field and never copy other. Just remember that you are unique in this world. Even God can never create a second human being exactly like you. So accept yourself and move on in life ahead.
