Shownotes

Technology is freeing human beings from conformity.
People are organized internally in three totally different ways: Tradition Centered, Inner Centered, and Outer Centered.
Social media is an extreme example of being outer centered where you try to be who others think you are.
Uniqueness doesn’t tend to appear in people who are Tradition or Outer Centered.
How much of people’s lives revolve around them wanting or imagining being someone else. Celebrity culture is a symptom of people trying to live lives other than their own.
People who spend the most time on social media have the highest rates of depression, especially young people.
If you actually have a center, you don’t need to prove it to other people.
Many people try to impose their value system on others, but theys will do things for their reasons, not someone else’s.
Uniqueness comes from having a sense of yourself inside, which allows you to resonate with the world.
If you have to constantly change who you are to please the people around you, they don’t really care that much about you.
Before this age, there was never a time where it was profitable to be unique.
Social media is designed and engineered to grasp your attention and not let go. Are you using social media or is it using you?
The world needs a fair amount of conformity to work, uniqueness is elective.
Entrepreneurship is the first decision in life to be unique, you might as well commit to it.
Once you identify your Uniqueness, you will begin to resonate with growth opportunities in the world.
