00:00 underneath your business casual attire.
00:04 You're all just a bunch of naked weirdos.
00:07 A lot of our unique weirdness
00:10 is exactly what we were shamed the most for
00:12 when we were children.
00:14 Definitely my childhood, I looked at how I was weird.
00:17 I'm like, wow, this is a terrible curse.
00:20 I actually experienced pain for my uniqueness.
00:24 So it's human nature, like, oh, that hurt.
00:25 I expressed my weirdness.
00:28 I got rejected, I will not do that again.
00:30 So we posture ourselves away from rejection
00:33 towards what?
00:35 Approval.
00:35 So what do you have to do to get someone's approval?
00:38 Please them.
00:40 What do you have to do to please a person?
00:43 Typically act like them.
00:45 And the most pervasive disease that inflicts humanity
00:50 is the disease of being normal.
00:52 I don't think anybody's ever achieved an extraordinary life
00:56 in terms of quality and success by excelling at normalcy.
01:01 Think of someone who you really admire.
01:04 Might be a celebrity,
01:05 might be someone in your personal life, it doesn't matter.
01:07 Just think of someone who you really admire.
01:10 I almost can guarantee you
01:11 there is something weird about this person
01:14 or else you wouldn't have ever noticed them.
01:16 And therefore you wouldn't be admiring them.
01:18 What I used to call a curse,
01:19 I'm like, wow, this is actually a beautiful gift.
01:21 It's a shift of perspective
01:23 in order to express your inner genius,
01:27 that is your weirdness.
01:29 I do believe you have to be willing to risk
01:32 uncertainty and vulnerability.
01:34 It has to be a challenge to be expressed.
01:37 It has to be a challenge to find it
01:39 or else it won't have meaning.
01:41 I dream of a world where we can express yourself,
01:44 experience yourself,
01:46 and embody the unique creativity of your own being.
01:49 It might just seem that expressing weirdness in your life
01:53 could be the worst thing you could ever do.
01:56 And it might be.
01:58 But what if it's one of the best things
01:59 you could ever do for yourself?
