A difficult step towards awareness is appreciating that we are not so special after all.

The things we think, the emotions we feel, the fears that get us stuck, the ambitions that drive us, the confusion in the face of uncertainty, the defensiveness when we fail. They are common to many and they do not make us any different from all others human beings.

Once we are fine with that, then we can dedicate time to what truly matters: how we react to all that and to an ever-changing world.

That’s where the biggest difference is.
