You don't have to believe what everybody else believes.
You don't have to do what everyone else does.
You can say things nobody else has ever said.
You get to be you and find the other people with whom it's good to be you.
That's called being an individual. It makes a lot of other people uncomfortable but it's worth it.

@DavidSalo I will add to this.
Question what you believe more than anyone else ever would or ever could.
My biggest mistake, and biggest regret, was not being critical of my own awareness and my own beliefs.
I know I hurt people because I didn't do that, and I'll never know the damage I caused by not being critical of what I believed.
