You can’t sing like her.

You can’t write like him.

You can’t draw like her.

You can’t build a business like him.

You can play like her.

Great!

Because we already have them.

What we don’t have is you.

We want what you have to offer.

We need whatever unique gifts and talents are buried within you.

It’s so easy to get caught up in the talents and skills that others have and to think that what you have to offer pales in comparison. And the reality is that in some cases that might be true, but that’s okay. What you have to offer is still unique to you.

Just because others have found a degree of success in their lives with their unique abilities doesn’t mean that there’s less of an opportunity for you to do so. There really is an abundance of opportunities out there for you to express your unique gifts. The key is that you have to believe that opportunities do indeed exist, because if you don’t, then you will let your unique talents die within you.

Notice that I haven’t mentioned using your talents to make money. I did this intentionally. So many careers, dreams, and visions have been killed in the cradle with the phrase, ‘you’ll never make any money doing that,’ or its close cousin question, ‘how will you make money doing that?’

So get up, get out and start expressing your uniqueness, even if it’s only to an audience of one. By the way, that one person might be the life you change forever with your unique talents.

P.S. Thanks for reading! If you enjoyed it please share it with one person you love.
