We can be both.
We can be one of many
in some ways
AND
also be unique
in other ways.
When I’m struggling
with a problem,
I initially take a one of many
or forest view of it.
If I need help increasing
my sales
in a romance niche,
for example,
I will gather advice
from writers
in ALL niches
regarding increasing sales.
I gain those insights.
Then I tweak them
for the tree
or unique level.
I modify their insights
to work in my specific niche.
It isn’t an
either/or
scenario.
We can be one of many
AND
unique
at the same time.
