choose to sound like you

“I want to sound like me.  I have something to say.  I have a way I’d like to say it.” – Seth Godin

People like to tell us how to be.

How to talk.

How to write.

What to say.

But what the people who you are talking to, who you are writing to want… is probably to hear from you.  The truest you.

So don’t be afraid to not tell someone what they want to hear.

To not say it the way they want you to say it.

To not write it how they want you to write it.

Because if we do that, we’ll all sound the same.
