You are your own way

You should do things your own way, that's why you get in the way of things: to prevent you from trying to be something else than yourself. A fish can't be a bird, because of its "fishyness". You are you, you can't avoid that.

Embrace yourself, your "limitations", your way of doing things. The "you" in your way isn't trying to stop you, it is trying to make you see that you should choose it: "Pick me! Pick me!" It isn't about your limitations, it is about your strengths.

The world already has everyone else's way of doing things, what it lacks is yours.

Tl;dr: You aren't IN your own way, you ARE your own way.


PS. There's a difference between what you are and what you think you are, the latter one is just a thought, a belief, an assumption. You are the things you really can't explain about yourself.
