Once you surround yourself by "different" people, it becomes normal like this is also your life, to be different that is. Unconventional living is by far the most ambitious kind of living, its a lifestyle change that really makes you realize what an idiot you've been trying to live normally. Because why the eff would you want to live normally when you can just..live differently?
Why push yourself to fit conventionally when we're all, in a way, in the path of unconventionality.

Idiots are those who try to fit their footsteps on the crowded, conventional path, when the unconventional path will only have yours.

I think conventionality obstructs unconventionality, not vice versa.
When you go into the world, your first nature should be to find first class unconventionals (what i like to call them, just like first gen immigrants).

Unconventionality doesn't promise rationality, though. I have met enough uniquely configured people to know that not everyone comes with a system settings of rational living, some only come with being different. But the ones you have to look for specifically are the effortless first class unconventionals, they produce high agency & figure shit out.

Another great thing about "different" people is that they come in a buy-one-get-several-free pack, so if you come across one it is almost guaranteed they have unique friends and it is such a small cult community, that once you get in, you'll find yourself in the back of an alleyway arbitrary group of individuals.

Entropy is a must in such groups, entropy of discussions, which is by far my most favorite part. What you should be expecting in return of your machine (your brain) is another weird machine (someone else's brain) to accompany yours in deep conversations about almost anything that: one, works and two, is engaging (and three, doesn't work but is engaging). Figuring out why's, how's & what if's is their supreme tagline, in my humble opinion, tagline of the "different" community.

If you have led yourself so far here and still don't know who these so-called "different" people are, i don't know what to tell you.
Good news is, i can try though.
"One serving of different contains as much as authenticity, self confidence just enough for it to not overpower, real intelligence and curiosity. Also a superior music taste is optional, but not a necessity (it's a necessity.)"

All you have to do to be different is to be as authentic as possible. Someone wise once told me "we're already at the peak of cringe mountain, why fear anymore?" If you think you're being cringe by being authentic, then it's not authenticity. Anything that's authentic will never be cringe, not in 2 years, not in 5, not in 80 down the line (shoutout to one who helped me realize this).

Least i can say is risk a little, change your paths and find your kind of "different" in this bizarre world by exploring & trying.
