Remarkability
lies in the edges. The biggest, fastest, slowest, richest, easiest, most
difficult. Not everyone wants to be remarkable most just want to be ordinary
and they do not appreciate your efforts to be remarkable. So what? Most people
are ostriches, heads in the sand, unable to help you anyway. Your goal isn’t to
please everyone. Your goal is to please those that actually speak up. Here is a list of some of the ways remarkable people get and stay remarkable. Part Two is tomorrow.

Live Your
Own Life: Embrace your uniqueness and live a life true to yourself, not one dictated
by societal expectations or the opinions of others. Define your own path and
make choices aligned with your values and passions.

Be Authentic:
Authenticity involves being genuine and true to yourself. Avoid putting on
masks or adopting personas to fit in. People appreciate authenticity, and it
fosters genuine connections and Relationships.

Come Up With
Your Own Sayings:  Express your thoughts
and ideas uniquely. Creating your own sayings or adopting unconventional
expressions can set you apart and make your communication memorable.

Leave Others
Better Than You Found Them:  Aim to
positively impact the lives of those you encounter. Offer encouragement,
support, or a helping hand. Leave a lasting positive impression through your
interactions.

Help People
Without Wanting Anything In Return:  Genuine
acts of kindness without expecting reciprocation create a remarkable impact.
Selfless giving builds trust, fosters connections, and contributes to a
positive, supportive community.

Don’t Try To
Be Perfect: Embrace imperfections and learn from mistakes. The pursuit of
perfection can be paralyzing, hindering Growth and innovation. Authenticity
often emerges from the acknowledgment of imperfections.

Face Your
Fears: Confronting fears leads to personal growth and resilience. It might
involve stepping out of your comfort zone, taking risks, and overcoming
obstacles. Remarkable individuals often face challenges head-on.

Take The
Plunge:  Be proactive and take
initiative. Whether it’s pursuing a passion, starting a project, or initiating
change, taking the plunge demonstrates courage and determination.

Question The
Norm: Challenge conventional thinking and question established norms.
Remarkable individuals often pioneer new ideas, challenging the status quo and
contributing to innovation.

Start Your
Own Tribe: Build a community around shared values and interests. Starting your
own tribe involves connecting with like-minded individuals, fostering a sense
of belonging, and making a positive impact collectively.

Say NO To
Things: Prioritize your time and energy by saying no to activities or
commitments that don’t align with your goals or values. Setting boundaries
allows you to focus on what truly matters.

You Are
Enough: Cultivate self-acceptance and recognize your inherent worth. Being
remarkable starts with acknowledging and embracing your unique qualities.
