Which aspects do you think makes a person unique?
Every single person is a unique puzzle composed of pieces of personality, life experiences, knowledge, and emotions.
Every person has their own perspective and world view, largely fueled by the way they’ve experienced and navigated the world.
Regardless of the exact path one’s life has taken, the journey leaves its mark on the person and shapes the way they interact with the world today.
1 your personality
An individual’s personality is something that is molded from the moment they are born right through to the present moment.
Every good and bad experience, every triumph and failure, every moment of strength and weakness, every bit of knowledge and wisdom we acquire…
…these guide us in how we move through the world.
No one else can or will have your exact collection of knowledge, experiences, and perceptions that causes you to be who you are.
No one else is going to respond to what you’ve experienced with the same emotions and thoughts that you had.
No one is going to make the same choices that you make.
Your personality is uniquely your own.
2 your attitude
A person’s attitude dictates how they perceive life and the actions of the people around them.
Both a positive and negative attitude can be infectious, influencing the people around you and pulling them in the general direction of what you are putting into the world.
That’s the foundation of self-help and motivational materials that talk about how your attitude can really limit what you can accomplish in life.
Because, the truth is that people with a positive attitude tend to shy away from those with more neutral or negative attitudes.
Your attitude is something that is formed by your emotional landscape unless you make an active choice to craft it into something better and more conducive to a happier present and future.
3 your habits
A habit is a thing we do with great regularity. The habits we have inform and determine what aspects of our unique person we develop.
A bad habit of eating unhealthy food and not exercising is going to cause lethargy and poor physical health.
A good habit of brushing your teeth twice a day and flossing is going to keep your mouth healthy and pain-free.
Forming habits such as reading, meditation, exercise, or trying new things can improve mental health and well-being.
Carl Jung famously said, “You are what you do, not what you say you’ll do.” And his words largely speak to how our actions and habits determine the person we become.
4 your creativity
Creativity is an interesting thing because there are so many different kinds.
You have a variety of arts that flex the creative side of your brain, from painting and drawing to dance and singing.
But then you also have creativity in other forms, like developing efficient systems, building a bookcase with your own hands, or planning an aesthetically pleasing landscape.
Every person has their own unique, creative gifts which are influenced by their own vision of what beauty is.
Sometimes, beauty isn’t a complicated thing. Sometimes creativity and beauty is simple effectiveness.
5 your passion
Passion is a magnificent part of the human experience.
There are so many things to be passionate about – art, nature, and humanity to name a few.
Passions can provide much needed direction toward a goal or experience that will allow us to leave our own unique mark on the world.
The things that stir the deepest emotions in one’s soul can speak to a higher calling to do something greater than oneself, even if they might be in a mental or emotional place where things aren’t that good at the moment.
Understanding your passions can help you find a direct, distinct path that is guided by your values and unique perception of the world.
Don’t let them cool down to nothing. Stoke and stir those flames from time to time, so they continue to burn and illuminate your path.
We are all unique individuals. We all have something unique and valuable to contribute to the world. It just may take some time to find that thing you are meant to contribute.
