On Self-Reliance Part 4

"A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds". It's better to challenge yourself with things that you know are going to be difficult than always doing the same things that won't challenge you and make you learn different and interesting things. It's also better if you're great and misunderstood because other people might learn from that and it could also make you unique and be resected by other people. We pass for what we are because we always think little of ourselves and don't try out best because we think people are going to judge us or we won't do it as good as we think we are.

It's perfectly natural to think some things are better than other things . Society say to be our best selves, but at the same time society judges when we are our best selves.
