There will be times when others tell you something with the best of intentions. They will recommend a certain course of action or way of viewing things.
But, in heeding their advice, you will find dissonance within yourself. You'll find that route simply cannot be the route for you.
It'll be a confusing thing to learn. Because it will come from people you respect. And, it may even be a route that works for them or for others.
You'll wonder how you could possibly move against the grain. But, you have to learn to trust yourself. You have to listen to the voice within you. You cannot be afraid to course correct.
Yes, it's true - we can learn so much from one another. But, also don't forget - we are each traveling life uniquely. We're crafted so incredibly distinctly. We're not meant to be mere replicas of one other. That reminder should help you realize - perhaps movement against norms or advice is actually a flag telling you - you're on track.
Start listening to your internal compass. You may not at first even know it's there. Look for it. Become more aware, and you'll notice it showing up more and more. You'll wonder how you possibly failed to notice it there.
