Individuality may seem like an easy task to accomplish, but in truth it is one of the hardest things to accomplish in life, a view also shared by Ralph Waldo Emerson: “To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment,” Individuality is the greatest accomplishment in life due the the sheer odds against an individual and the number of outside forces trying to influence him or her. Individuality is like talent; everybody has the ability to make use of it, but rarely anybody ever takes advantage of it. Since the dawn of history, those who are remembered are those who dared to be individual, those who worked against society and the odds to be themselves.
