What makes you different?

What makes you different?

Yes, I was not at all happy.

Agree?

Until the day I choose to listen to myself. I let my subconscious go wherever it wanted me to go. It was not just in dreams I wanted to live, but in real life. Not allowing others to cloud my personality, my ability, my inclination towards philosophy, knack to motivate others, and my indifference towards others’ opinions.

Why am I dreaming of people I've never seen before?

What if he’d come outside?

Experiences: What has happened to me? Have I led a normal life with two parents and two siblings? Yes. Breakups I’ve had. Friends I’ve made. School I have attended. Guides I’ve met. Places I’ve been.

Being different is being a weirdo. And being okay about it.

When was the last time you had sex with someone much older than yourself?

Long story short, here I am. Being a writer. Doing things I’d always love to do. Sharing my experiences of what I learnt.

Don’t get a partner because you’re jealous of your friends.

Don’t go to the gym because it’s a fitness fad.

A kid threw a stone at my car. I confronted his mom (who was nearby). She said, "You can't prove it was my son." How should I have reacted?

I know being a writer is no different. But my journey is different. Its unique to me.

Not because people show it off and you have to follow the lead.

"Life is a journey, not a destination. Enjoy the ride." - Ralph Waldo Emerson

Why do people procrastinate and how can they stop?

C’mon, it’s an opportunity to break the rules, stand out and become ONE of a kind.

Everything has shaped me. Friends who gave me their pens and journals. Best friends I never made. Crush that made me write poems while he didn’t care. Romances I’ve missed. Opportunity to become an editor or a news correspondent I missed. I think all this has made me the writer I am.

Don’t choose to be an engineer just because it pays well.

What do you think hell is like?

Not ignoring emotions because they can be destructive. Not underestimating your aspirations because society calls them second-rate.

Experiments: My life has been a group of experiments that failed to take off until I resorted to writing.

I always yearned to go for government jobs because I had a few relatives already into it and doing well with money and security. And here is me, with an arts background, uncertain about what to choose.

Are rich people harder workers than poor people as a whole?

A govt. job could do it for me. Plus Money, plus security, plus prestige.

Being different is being okay with failure, so you know what the dessert of a win tastes like.

I am an ordinary human being with the same body structure as you who are reading, you and I have the same material of what our bodies and brains are made up of.

What is your opinion on The Beatles' impact on modern popular music? Are there any other bands with similar impacts on their genre(s)? Why them and not others?

Consider a rat who never came out of the hole fearing for his life. He stayed in the dark for years and died one day, unbeknownst.

Neither I’m Tesla, who got poor grades in school, nor I’ve grown to invent electric current that powers many electronic devices today. Nor I’m an entrepreneur who is the idea behind the Tesla cars.

Honestly, there’s nothing that makes ‘me’ different.

Why do I randomly start sweating a lot in public (while waiting in line, in a new class, etc.) then start sweating more because I’m embarrassed that I’m sweating so much? Is this social anxiety?

You can be fearful and still use it to tame your weaknesses and build your emotional strength.

To take out these experiments, accept the asymmetry of your emotions, your eccentricities, aspirations and thoughts for what they actually are. Instead of filtering it through the social system, recognize the difference and apply it in your life.

What makes you YOU.

Take my word. You won’t regret it.

Anxious to get a job, I chose to do what was socially recommended for me. So, I tried. Being a govt. servant. Failed. A Research Scholar. Didn’t make it. A Professor. Guess what?

If you’ve read this far, let me tell you one more thing.

What type of narcissist cheats more and gets pleasure out of hurting you, even if they're married?

Otherwise, thank you for reading. It was fun writing to you all. Hope it helped you in more ways than one.

All of it would have been different, and this life would mean something, at least for him.

P.S. What’s your idea of being different? Do you have a different point of view?

Why does my crush always looks at me in a sad way whenever I talk with other boys, and if he catch me staring on him then he go and flirt with other girls and then check if I am looking at him?

Being different is being a mess, yet being okay with it.

I experimented. A lot. And now I know I don't need more trials of this kind. I’m writing this today at just the right place from the comfort of my home while it rains outside. While a cold breeze rings music to my senses.

He would have experienced the miracle called light. Maybe he got better food to eat. Then he got wounded. Then in search of balm, he travaled to the wilderness and found a party of rats, eaten to its heart’s content and danced the night out.

Is there a specific time frame for therapists to tell their clients they are wrong?

Even if that means disappointing your parents and teachers for some time, but believe you’ll eventually make them feel proud.

Without experiments, is life worth it.

So, what actually makes us all different?

How would you feel if your friend confided in you that she is cheating on her husband, knowing that he loves her deeply? What emotional and ethical considerations would you grapple with in response to her revelation?

“The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.” - Lao Tzu

Tried everything. A well-paying corporate job, govt. exams. Nothing provided me with security. I didn’t have time to myself. Hustling was my name. Didn’t go to parties, travel or anything. Didn’t talk to friends.

Indeed, a number of other factors contribute to your uniqueness, but that’s for you to introspect.

What is your review of Kota Factory Season 3 (TVF Original)?

Can you make it?

I have always wanted to write things. Wrote poetry during my grad and reluctantly left it for preparation of a govt. exam because who’s got extra time for it.

Become different not according to the world, but according to what you like and what you don’t.

"Be yourself; everyone else is already taken." - Oscar Wilde

You know how all of this enlightenment came to me.

So, keep on experimenting.

Do anything and everything because you like it. You love it. Do the things that make you go crazy. Things you’d barter your breath for. Things that make your life a rainbow.

Don’t drink because everybody does today.
