REWRITE YOUR SCRIPT – DO NOT BLEND IN

Most of us live our lives the way our parents lived theirs. We are told to follow family traditions. Statements like “this is how it has always been done” have been drummed in our ears so loud that we hear it every time we feel we want to try something else.

Knowing that I can write my own script according to my uniqueness yet not violating the universal principles is very liberating.
We were all created with a purpose. Finding that purpose and living according to it makes you stand out and not blend in.

I have heard it said that if any two things are the same, one is irrelevant. Why then do we live in a copy, paste mode? It is like trying to fit a square box in a round hole.

Rewriting your own script takes understanding who you are. It means you having to take a S.W.O.T analysis. Find out your strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats.  This self- examination is the answer to rewriting your own script.  The great philosopher Socrates said “the unexamined life is not worth living.”

Examine yourself by your values, beliefs, expectations, attitude and actions. This will give you the permission to live your life unapologetically. For it is when you find yourself, that you will be significant and not live in the shadows of other people.

At Kyusa, we cover Self Management as one of our modules and this has helped our Change Agents to discover their personalities and identify their passion. When you find yours, you will REWRITE YOUR OWN SCRIPT AND STAND OUT NOT BLEND IN.
