▶ Your Answer : Some people think that it is better to be different from others than
to be more like others. However, I personally believe that to be more like
others is a much more essential method to succeed. There are several reasons as
follows; first, it helps to save time while imitating others who have the same
goals as me; and second, it is harder to gain a good feeling if you look
different like others. To begin with, it can save a lot of time and energy by imitating
people who share with you the same goal. It would be a good motivation you have
the fact that you have an idol who can move you. In my opinion, ‘being like
others’ shares many advantages with a ‘team play’ has. I’ll take my personal
experience as an example. Solving problems alone was always hard for me.
Whenever I was in trouble, there was no one to ask for help. The fact that no
one shares troubles always made me miserable. But when I met the person who has
the same goal to achieve, she was always there for me and willing to help. It
cheers me up and also saves so much time to reach the goal. On top of that, it is hard for a man who looks different to gain a
good feeling for the first time. Admittedly, being different is prominent in
that individuality is a characteristic of only one person. But, what we should
pay more attention to is to be more familiar with others. Since normal people
feel weird and discomfort when they meet something different. For instance, I
remember the first time when I saw a doll pierrot. I felt so weird. That time I
was a kid but I still remember the feeling because it looks so much different
as other cute teddy bears. After a few years, now pierrot became my best doll. However,
I can tell you that it took so long time to get attached to him.
To sum up, being like others helps me save so much time by imitating
others with the same goals as me. Besides, looking different makes to feel
discomfort for other people. In this regard, I think it is better to be more
like others than to be different from others in order to succeed.
