Motivation: Stay true.
Free yourself from the complexities and drama of your life. Simplify. Look within. Within ourselves we all have the gifts and talents we need to fulfill the purpose we've been blessed with. --- Steve Maraboli, Life, the Truth, and Being Free
The world moves so fast and so is the people in it. Choose a path and stay true to it. Don't blend with the world and its materialistic life, create something unique for yourself and follow it religiously.
You need to free yourself from the net casted by the world, to catch it's prey, to catch the attention of its followers who have failed to see the world for what it is. They have choosen to live and follow the world like a religion. The world has created a niche in which they've become members, it's hard to be free.
The world has presented its followers with numerous things, mostly material possessions. Humans need to understand that the world is more than these things. To stay free, It's about your simplicity, your kindness and generosity. Your love and empathy towards others.
Find yourself and create something different for yourself. You're unique, only if you believe it. You possess all the things you need, the will to try and the ideas that will sustain you. You're talented, develop yourself.
Shine!!

There is a whole, big world out there.
I fiind myself conflicted being content 'in our own little world', but yet our little world is not confing or restrictive.
I see here on Steemit the traveling, vacationing, creativity and read excellent posts. At times I can feel insignificant in comparison.
However, I am not a world traveller by nature, an artist or philosopher. I am Mom, wife, me, employee, friend, and I try to be receptive of most things. Like to stay close to home. That's me.
Other stories might temp me to re-think myself as boring or unadventurous or even old and stuck in my ways. I could get disheartened. But I don't. They do what they do and I do what I do.
Creating something different for yourself is great advice. Play to your strengths, follow your mindset, develope your own approach. You can still stand out and blend in at the same time. No need to sacrifice any of yourself to a find your niche. No need to conform to join anybody else's niche either.
You just have to believe in yourself and appreciate the power of positive thinking within. There's nothing out there you're missing, the world has created a mirage for so many people, they continue to chase but in the end they never get it.
