Being a Nobody Is the Best Opportunity in Itself to Be Somebody

Ritu B. Pant, on the benefits to being a nobody.

When you are a nobody

  1. no one expects much out of you.
  2. you are under the radar.
  3. your mistakes go unnoticed.
  4. no one expects you to prove yourself.
  5. you don’t have to worry about your reputation

Basically, you can keep making mistakes until you get it right. Being able to make mistakes without having to worry about consequences sounds pretty damn good, doesn’t it?
