For when the ABC's of our lives are weighing down on us, shrug. Let the world come crashing down! I bet you we will learn more in that process rather than standing still and enduring the pain.
C is for Conformity
FOCUS! Every teacher that a child will ever meet, every coach that pushes for success and perfection, every friends parent that whispers their ideals into your childs ear is going to be teaching this lesson. Take a moment to realize that conformity is the catalyst to mediocrity. That metaphorical box that we are told to think outside of is only built up in the first place by those people teaching this simple rule "C is for Conformity".
If nothing else I want my child to know, or just anyone to know, that failing attains far greater knowledge than instant success and perfection. Its those moments of falling and picking youself back up to figure out your goals that makes attaining success so much more enjoyable and memorable. Embrace the ability to make mistakes and have the abilty to realize those are what makes a person perfect, their imperfections. Smile in the face of our masmic conformity, this is your antidote!
