Many people are familiar with the phrase "peculiar person", but not everyone is able to immediately define it, although they themselves often use it.
Who is this? An interesting and extraordinary personality? A strange person with a "hello"? A person with a difficult character, difficult to communicate? Or one who is greatly superior to others, and therefore it is almost impossible to find an approach to him? Need to figure it out.
Definition
Originality is the pronounced coloring of the personality, which makes it extraordinary. This is immediately noticeable. About a person who is characterized by such colorfulness, they say: “He is not like everyone else!”
And it really is. Moreover, colorful people rarely characterize themselves in public like that. In the depths of their souls, of course, they feel this, but they do not stick out. But those people who claim that they are “not like everyone else” usually turn out to be completely ordinary. They are just trying to attract attention in this way, to feel a little more significant, to assert themselves.
So, the bearer of originality is also distinguished by unique personal qualities. With him, they manifest themselves at their unique level, form a special bouquet. However, it is the same for every person. As there are no two identical snowflakes in nature, so there are no absolutely identical characters. But in a peculiar person, these qualities form a truly unique “bouquet”, very different from all the others.
The one who doesn't fit in the box
Such personalities always attract attention. The vast majority of people live, limiting themselves to some kind of framework that is usually imposed by society. Many follow some standards, stereotypes, exist according to patterns.
Peculiar person is not like that. This is the one in whom other people see a colorful, unconventional image that is different from many others. He has a bright personality, a unique demeanor, a unique style and interesting thinking. And the way of life of such a person is not something that surprises some - it is even shocking.
But he doesn't care. He lives the way he likes, that's all. Perhaps someone will try to teach him life, to change him - but this is only because his image does not fit into the template "world" of this person. Oddly enough, not all people realize that there are individuals who live and think differently, and this is normal.
Camping is the scourge of modern society, inexpressiveness and stereotyping. And originality is a claim to uniqueness and uniqueness.
Manifestations of unusualness
Exclusivity, originality and rarity of a person are manifested at all levels. This includes physiology, and biology, and spirituality, and morality, and psychology.
But in this context, a peculiar person is one who perceives the information that surrounds him through his unique prism. This is influenced by his inherent views, attitudes, motives, needs, expectations, etc. All of the above from his youth affects the development of the uniqueness of his spiritual and psychological world.
Where does this peculiarity come from in a person, what factors influence its formation? Surely many will say that education and training play a role here. But this is a very controversial statement. The beginning of the formation of originality is laid by the individual's craving for self-knowledge - his emotions, feelings, personal attitude to the world. And, of course, inner strength. Without it, making yourself a person with a capital letter will not work.
Negative peculiarity
It is necessary to make a reservation that uniqueness does not always manifest itself in a positive way. Quite often there are individuals who turn out to be peculiar in the negative sense of the word.
How do you know if a person is good or bad? Very simple. The bad one causes harm to those who do not deserve it, and for no reason. Often just for fun or just for fun.
Also, a bad person is emotionally indifferent to other people's troubles. Moreover, seeing the grief thataffected someone else, he will deliberately demonstrate his inhumanity - gloat, aggravate the situation.
This is the kind of originality that would not be better. Yes, and the term is too positive to characterize such persons. A person who considers cruelty, immorality, bloodthirstiness and vandalism to be something ordinary for himself is not like everyone else, to put it mildly. But he is not unique. He is a failure of the system, pus on the body of mankind, the destroyer of all that is good and bright.
Originality is freedom
It is worth returning to the positive. What does a peculiar person mean in the good sense of the word? This is the one who is originally free. He recognizes only himself, as well as what he considers important, valuable, necessary and correct. A peculiar person will never impose or prove anything to anyone. He does not need it, as he is in harmony with himself.
Such a person is open to new experiences and interesting experiences, but he does not accept the notorious imposition. That is why he always cuts off communication with his sources, freeing himself from extraneous oppression.
And of course, he doesn't aspire to be like anyone else. As mentioned before, this may shock someone, and this individual will try to change such a peculiar person.
Why? Then, that "one must be and live like everyone else." For some reason, many people think that standing out is a bad thing. Unfortunately, such an attitude has long been embedded in the mentality and is often transmitted through education and training. People who think so will neverfree and idiosyncratic.
About appearances
Often the internal state is reflected in the visual image. A free person with original thinking does not hesitate to express himself outwardly. He doesn’t care how people look at his colored hair or tattoos, how they comment on the fact that in winter he goes only in a T-shirt or year-round in the same sweater.
Sometimes, of course, something in the image can only be a fashion statement. But not always. The appearance of unique people is a reflection of their soul, temperament and views. And it doesn’t matter how dressed and what exactly a peculiar person stands out for. Whatever it is, he likes it. That's it.
On original thinking
Why be non-standard at all? To stop being categorized as being gray and mediocre. If they like it, then so be it! But when a person has a desire to change, to become a little more unusual - this is a "bell".
Why do we need original thinking? Because it's an engine. Standard thinking relaxes the brain, leads to degradation. A person does not develop, does not receive food for thought, does not leave the comfort zone. Some even live “on the machine.”
Be that as it may, the path to originality and broad thinking lies through diversity, new events, creativity and even risk. To become one of these people, you will have to learn how to break your habitual regime, do what you never had to, read, develop.
In fact, everything is very simple - you just need toact. That's just a lot of laziness. Well, it's an individual matter. But whoever wants to, will start. If there is a desire, both forces and opportunities will appear.
