For a long time, I carried a simple belief: everyone should be rich, successful, and live a luxurious life. There is nothing morally wrong with that idea. The problem is not the desire itself—it’s that this idea is fundamentally unnatural.

Look at nature.

Plants, animals, rivers, mountains—nothing there is equal, identical, or competing toward a single definition of success. A rose does not feel inferior because it is smaller than a sequoia tree. A bird does not feel depressed because it cannot swim like a fish. They exist, they function, they bloom, they survive—each in their own way.

Now imagine a rose plant sitting there, anxious and heartbroken because it is not tall, thick, and mighty like a sequoia. It sounds absurd. Yet this is exactly what humans do—daily. We compare, we rank, we internalize, and then we celebrate this behavior as ambition, motivation, or growth.

Objective and healthy comparison has its place. It can teach, guide, and calibrate. But the moment comparison becomes personal and emotional, the game is already lost. At that point, we are no longer learning—we are betraying our own nature.

Because we are nature too.

Being part of nature means something very simple and very profound: each of us is designed to do something specific, in a specific way, with specific strengths. Like the rose, our task is not to become something else, but to bloom fully into what we already are. To understand our natural abilities, recognize our talents, and nurture them patiently.

That uniqueness is not a flaw. It is the design.

So the real question becomes: amid all the social noise, how do we find our own uniqueness?

The answer is surprisingly simple—though not easy.

No one trains us to do it. And in fact, no one needs to. We are born with an inner compass. Every human being has the natural ability to sense the direction that brings deep satisfaction and quiet peace. Not excitement. Not dopamine. Not validation. Peace.

The tragedy is that most people discover this only after a crisis—illness, loss, failure, or a brush with death. Until then, we move with the crowd. We chase trends, scroll endlessly, shop compulsively, and borrow goals that were never ours. Temporary highs replace lasting fulfillment.

But however we arrive there, once we truly understand this—once we feel that being on our path gives a peace beyond comparison—we are free.

Being on one’s own path is enlightenment, if such a thing exists.

That path may look ordinary or extraordinary from the outside. It could be that of a businessman, a teacher, an artist, a scientist, a mother, or even a janitor. The role does not matter. What matters is alignment. When individuals live aligned with their nature, a quiet coherence forms in society—a self-sustaining, functional harmony without force or imitation. Others might see following your heart, passion, and uniqueness as outdated ideas. To them, these are just old trends—no longer glamorous, no longer fashionable. They forget that truth does not age; it remains the same, independent of time. Such people may even claim that you do not understand the “practical world.” Yet in reality, the most practical person is the one who understands their own nature, settles into work that aligns with it, and builds a life in their own style—without friction, imitation, or inner conflict.

But for this to happen, one thing is essential: reducing noise.

And the noise is not just from trends, but from hollow, misguided trends that have nothing to do with real progress—often amplified by ignorance. Sadly, even science, technology, spirituality, and ideas meant to uplift humanity now carry noise, distorted and magnified by mainstream media, pulling attention away from truth and inward clarity.

The truth is this:
When you stop trying to become someone else and allow yourself to fully become who you are, peace stops being a destination and quietly becomes your home. And every bit of excitement and success you were chasing outside will meet you there—because a rose is always complete in its own blooming, no matter how small it is. And, someone who has the courage to follow his heart is already a genius!
