When we’re surrounded by those just like us, it’s easy to become complacent and set in our ways.
Venturing into the unfamiliar forces us to adapt, to learn new skills, perspectives, and ways of thinking.
Being a minority in any setting pushes us to be more open-minded, appreciative, humble, and resilient.
Though feeling rare or different can be intimidating at first, overcoming that discomfort often allows our true character and capabilities to shine.
