Post 52: Remember, There is No One Else on Earth Like You

What is the biggest mistake people make in applying for jobs ?

" The biggest mistake people make in applying for jobs is in not being themselves. Instead of taking their hair down and being completely frank, they often try to give the answers they think you want. But it doesn't work, because nobody wants a phony. Nobody ever wants a counterfeit coin " - Paul Boynton

You and I have such abilities, so let's not waste a second worrying because we are not like other people. You are something new in this world. Never before, since the beginning of time, has there anybody like you, and never again throughout all the ages to come will there ever be anybody exactly like you again.

The science of genetic informs us that you are what you are largely as a result of twenty-three chromosomes by your father and twenty-three chromosomes contributed by your mother. These forty-six chromosomes comprise everything that determines what you inherit.


If you can't be a highway, then just be a trail,
If you can't be the sun, be a star,
It isn't by size that you win or you fail,
Be the best of whatever you are !
