Sometimes you feel like you don’t fit in because you dress, act, or look different than the people around you. Sometimes you feel a lack of belonging in your surroundings. Instead of seeing this as a weakness, you can view it as a strength. Because you don’t fit in, you may have developed an “outsider perspective,” or a way to view the world in a different light. You may be more accepting of people around you, or want to “fight for the underdog.” You may even be more discerning about the types of relationships you want to have and how you allow others to treat you. When you see you difference as a strength, you can be strong in your inner knowing that you don’t need to fit in, you just need to find the people who fit with you.
