Dr. Sandra C. Duru’s Voice of Nature | Don’t follow the crowd, let the crowd follow you

The fact that everyone is moving in that direction doesn’t make it acceptable, neither does it make it the best way to go. How about you change the narrative? Dare to be different!

It is so easy for people to jump on the bandwagon these days. Once they see a particular idea, product, or service working for someone, they automatically think it’s the way to go. Everyone wants to do the same thing. What makes you think you can’t do better? What makes you think you can’t set the pace for others to follow?

I’m particularly in love with this quote by the great Margaret Thatcher, “Don’t follow the crowd, let the crowd follow you”. It’s as simple as it sounds, never be the one to adjust to the dictates of the crowd, rather, be the one that calls the shot.

You can’t continue to live another person’s dream. You have to fashion out your life such that you will also be a point of reference for people to follow. Don’t limit yourself, stretch your imagination, dare to stand out from the crowd, and do something that will make people gravitate towards you as well.

You can do it!
