You have to be different, great or first.
The only way to change something is to shock it. If you want your muscles to grow, you have to shock them. If you want society to change, you have to shock them.
Don't be a blueprint. Be an original.
Refuse to be average.
You can't be common, the common man goes nowhere; you have to be uncommon
Don't be normal. Be an example.
This was my motto: 'Don't come up with routine stuff.'
Everything's so, like, saturated nowadays. So if you wanna, like, make an impact, you gotta do something different. Do something new.
Break the rules, stand apart, ignore your head, and follow your heart.
Be special. Be anything but mediocre.
Continue to surprise those who would put you in a neat demographic. Be insistently curious.
Eschew the ordinary, disdain the commonplace
The only way that you can find any semblance of a rule, or make any semblance of your own rule, is to tear up the rulebook. Throw it out, burn it, throw it away, and make your own rules.
'Don't be the moth. Be the light bulb.' When I say that I mean don't follow the crowd. Just shine. Be the light bulb. Do your thing. Pave your own path.
It's always better to shock people and change people's expectations than to give them exactly what they think you can do.
My mentally for my character is you have to be first, better, or different. I know that I'm not the best at everything; in fact, I'm not the best at a lot of things, so I'm going to be different, or I'm going to be the first one to do it.
I like being the villian. I don't know if it has to do with my personality. You get to have a lot more fun as a villian. You don't have to stick to the rules. You can be a lot crazier. You can go off the rails.
We have these ambitions that are very hard to accomplish because life puts us in our place. We have this battle with mediocrity.
All I knew is that I NEVER wanted to be AVERAGE.
To WOW, you must differentiate yourself, which means do something a little unconventional and innovative. You must do something that’s above and beyond what’s expected. And whatever you do must have an emotional impact on the receiver.
To make a mark, you have to do something different.
If you do generic things, you know, after a while, brands or designers become stagnated.
