The pleasure and pain of being an exception

Alan Weiss, one of my heroes, puts out a memo every Monday morning USA time. It is a pithy thought from him and an quote from someone else. To really stimulate your thinking at the start of every week subscribe to Alan's Monday Morning Memo here.

A recent memo from Alan contained this quote:
How glorious it is -- and also how painful -- to be an exception.
-- Alfred de Musset

You are a one-of-a-kind. Do you see yourself as such?

It is sometimes painful to become all that we are capable of becoming, yet for me it is life's most important quest, and the other side of pain is pleasure.

Be the difference you want to see in the world
