Humans are like fashion. The unique ones are made by the head designer that does haute couture, the commoners are merely designs created by the contract designers of the label.
If anyone has seen the blogs recently, you would notice a massive boom in the amount of effort that has been made to improve the designs and customization of templates. Unfortunately, most of them seem like lackluster replicas. Are these changes made because we truly want to do them or are they made so that we won’t feel left out?
The question is, “When has it come to a point when we need a carrot dangling in front of us before we push ourselves to do something?” Are our actions a reaction from our peers or are our actions molded by our peers. Do we do things simply because others are doing it, or are we doing it because we really want to enrich ourselves? What separates us from being pioneers, innovators and replicas?
It is without a doubt, that by competing, you are pushing yourself to win. No one really wants to take part in a competition and lose. Whoever says it doesn’t matter if they win or not, are usually the losers. Why bother taking part if you didn’t want to win in the first place. But, how is being a replica giving you that competitive edge. IT DOESN’T!
So how do you make yourself a cut above the rest?
Being a pioneer makes you a prototype, being an innovator makes you improve on the prototype and being a replica simply means you lack everything else the other two categories of people possess.
Kudos to those who do it for the right reasons, and for those who are struggling to survive the rat race, I hope you find your muse soon.
Disclaimer: For some apparent reason, this may seem as an excuse for my laziness to improve on my tech skills. I admit that there isn’t a single cell in my anatomy that’s tech savvy( not proud of it though), but I would also like to highlight the fact that this is one race that I do not consider to be part of. The carrot just doesn’t seem appealing enough.

Atrocity!

This is my first ever blog post. There is a reason to that. There are people out there who simply love writing about themselves and sharing every moment with the public and there are others who prefer to keep their live's a little more private.
I am to a certain extent, a bigot. My opinions may come across as crude, offensive and outlandish. That is why I try to keep my comments and thoughts shy from the public. But, since I've been compelled to create a blog, I shall therefore, restrain to my utmost ability, to make my words as mild and prudent as possible.
Since I am seriously uncomfortable penning anything about myself, I would rather utilise this blog to write or rant about everything else that is of existence in this world. It would be of great pleasure to me to constructively(or not) rip every fibre of each fabric(topic) that I dwell on.
Feel free to add any form of comments, opinions or rebuttal. Everyone's entitled to their own opinions. I am, however, not obligated to accept them.
Disclaimer: the abovementioned person(creator) of this blog doesn't really exist. The thoughts were pieced out by a walking puppet with an uncanny ability to type and communicate with actual human beings. No strings attached.
