U – UNIQUE
Unique – Being one of a kind, unlike anyone else.
“The greatness of art is not to find what is common but what is unique” – Isaac Singer.
God spent time creating you, and he took his time because you are unique! Yes, you have a super power, and that super power is that there is no one else like you, anywhere. There are seven billion people in the world but only ONE you, and if you being unique isn’t important enough, then I don’t know what else is.
God made you for you. He could have chosen for all of us to be completely the same, but he didn’t: he made us with different colours, different hair textures, different DNA, different eyes, different feet, different toe nails… DIFFERENT EVERYTHING. Of course, some things may be similar, …show more content…
Why should the fact that I am black, young, and female limit me from the dream of being successful? The whole advantage of being a minority is the fact that you're UNIQUE. You're one of the few who SHOULD do it, COULD do it, and WILL do it.
Barack Obama is an amazing example, and let’s not lie here and say he wasn’t just favoured for his political campaign; his likeliness came from his ethnic background. One thing I always get told is, “You've achieved so much for your age!” Do you see what I mean? Being a minority is actually an advantage; people will always praise you 10 times more for being one of a kind.
For all the people who’ve been told you can't do something because of who you are, DO IT ANYWAY, BECAUSE YOU WILL STAND OUT. Many people lined up to watch the red moon, but why? It's only a moon. Many people will line up to push your success, but why? Because you're …show more content…
The one thing we forget as humans is that everyone is fighting their own battle – and even you are. Sometimes we forget that we are bigger than every obstacle thrown at us, so just remember this: fear is FALSE EVIDENCE APPEARING REAL. Your obstacles may seem bigger than what they are, but don’t be a victim, BE A VICTOR.
Don’t make excuses; make results. Now, I am a very honest person, so let me just be honest with you here – people don’t care about what you have been through; they care about what you have overcome.
Life will only overtake you if you allow it to – trust me. At the age of 15, I nearly got stabbed, and on that day I thought I was going to lose my life. My mind was racing with all type of thoughts, and this experience led to me being anxious, scared to leave my house, and hating myself. However, through having faith and hope that I would overcome it, I did! And now that I have overcome it, I’ve been able to inspire others to overcome their own issues. Life certainly isn’t easy, but like I said, nothing good in life comes easy: to get good grades you have to put in the hard work, and to get a good body you have to work out. This stuff comes with tears, sweat, and sometimes even blood (though I hope
