Being and thinking individually is something that many people are afraid to do. They would sometimes follow the crowd and allow others to lead. This is mainly the reason why slackers and followers never win the game of Survivor.
For those who are worried about being not noticed, here are some tips.
1. Honesty & Openness:
Opinions express individuality more than anything. No two persons have the same opinions. This makes you unique.
2. Know Yourself:
You need to know yourself before you decide to express your individuality. This will allow you to gain the necessary confidence to become a self-advocate. There is no one better to help you stand up for what you believe in than yourself.
3. Make a list:
You can express your individuality by making a list of your likes and dislikes. It is good to often share the list with others to compare strengths. You may learn more about yourself from others than you would alone.
4. Customizing clothes:
One way you can express your individuality is by wearing custom fit clothes. These clothes are not retail bought and cannot be worn by others. You send a better message to others that you are a person who is different and stands up for what is right.
5. Make your phone individual:
Add specs to your phone. You may add stickers, different key chains and may use a very unique holder. People will notice these things and even compliment you on your individuality.
6. Listen to what you like:
Never conform to what others love. Stand up for what you believe in. If you do not like a certain type of music then do not listen to it. Only listen to what you love, no matter what others say.
7. Uncommon Underwear:
When asking a friend about this topic, she recommended this. Again this is an expression of your own beliefs. If you are afraid to express individuality openly, this would be the best way to do it without being seen.
8. Risks/Challenges:
You are an individual and not someone who is part of a group because of your unique risks and challenges. No two people live the same lives. By you doing things differently than others, you are expressing your individuality.
9. Gifting:
Never buy the same old gifts year after year. Things do become boring. Intrigue people in your life by doing something new.
10. Accessories:
You should follow Christina Aguilera. When interviewed, she discussed how she often expresses her individuality with accessories like shoes, belts, scarves and jewelry.
