THE ONE
One of the most powerful ways to discover your true self is to embrace the concept of fait sur mesure, which means “made to your measure” in French. If what society or culture hands you don’t suit who you are, it’s essential to have the courage to carve out a way of life that does. This involves understanding that you are the only one who can define what fits you. You are your own standard. No one else can decide what aligns with your values and desires. You have the choice to either stay within the confines of cultural expectations or to break free and become a catalyst for your own growth.
Avoid the pitfall of following someone else’s blueprint for life. It’s okay to learn from others and to draw inspiration from their experiences—after all, we stand on the shoulders of giants. But the ultimate goal is to tailor these insights to fit your unique journey. Be innovative. Think beyond the conventional paths. Your life is your canvas, and you are the artist.
In the grand scheme of the world, you are “The One” in your own story. But don’t let this go to your head; it’s important to remember that everyone else is “The One” in their story too. The difference lies in who chooses to act on this realization. It is up to you, and you alone, to take responsibility for your life and to shape your own destiny.
So, don’t hold back. Live life with full force and intention. Take bold steps, even if it means diving into the unknown. Embrace your role as the hero of your own story. Don’t wait for someone else to save you—become your own saviour. The time to act is now, before it’s too late.
