Imagine you were in a world where everything was the same. There would be no telephone, no government and no laws. That is if there wasn't a different person who thought of those ideas. Being different can be a strength because it allows you to think in a different way and possibly have ideas that can change the world.

     Being different can have a very big impact on how the world works. For example, Thomas Edison created the lightbulb. He thought in a way nobody else did at that time and look, we still use his invention.

     Being different doesn't always have to happen through invention. For example, J.K Rowling thought a little differently than other authors and she wrote the Harry Potter series. The Harry Potter series has inspired many writers to write fantasy books, and it has been one of the most popular books ever since it has been released.

    Being different can have small or big impact on the world. A lot of people think that if something is different or an outlier, it is bad. But look around. Everything you see is probably there because someone was different. - AJ
