Live in your own world. Ignore normal. Ignore news. Ignore notifications. Ignore anything that pulls you away from the mission. The others will try to distract you. They'll say you're too narrow. Too linear. Too exreme. Lack of conviction loves company. So they will drag you down to their reality. Recognize and resist.
Outliers are outsiders who simply kept going. Stand outside, and you will stand out. Stay in your world, and the world will reward you.
