Self-reliance | Ralph Waldo Emerson

4 posts | 18 read | 8 to read

"Every great man is a unique". R.W Emerson told us that Self-confidence is always about independence : "What I must do is all that concerns me, not what the people think. This rule, equally arduous in actual and in intellectual life, may serve for the whole distinction between greatness and meanness. It is the harder because you will always find those who think they know what is your duty better than you know it. It is easy in the world to live after the world's opinion; it is easy in solitude to live after our own; but the great man is he who in the midst of the crowd keeps with perfect sweetness the independence of solitude."

"Thy love afar is spite at home." You want to change the world? You want to make a difference? Start here and start now. Love thy neighbor. For real, your actual neighbor. Mow the elderly couples lawn. Bring the garbage can in for the pregnant women across the street. Make a difference here. Now.
