When going through life, you will encounter a lot of people who will want to impose their will upon you. They may want to obtain something from you, or could simply act because of their nature. They will try to steer you away from what you feel you want. Humans have a tremendous need to fit in. But if you want to contribute something meaningful, you will almost certainly have to rebel against these forces. Taking the mediocre path will only produce mediocre results.
