“Just because it’s what’s done doesn’t mean it’s what should be done!“
— Cinderella

Insights on Today's Quote

That quote? It’s a wake-up call. A permission slip. A little whisper in your ear saying, Hey, just because the crowd’s walking that way doesn’t mean you have to follow them off the cliff.

Plenty of “done things” are… dumb. Outdated. Harmful, even. The 9-to-5 grind with no flexibility? “Normal.” So is burnout. Putting success over mental health? “Expected.” So is anxiety. Traditions that silence people? “Cultural.” So is generational trauma.

You’re not a machine on an assembly line. You’re allowed to ask, Does this make sense anymore? And if the answer is no, you get to pivot. That’s not rebellion. That’s wisdom.

Doing what should be done is harder. It’s slower. It might be unpopular. But it’s the only thing that makes life feel real.

So go ahead. Question the script. Break the loop. Rewrite the rules. Wear something that fits you.

Because normal isn’t the goal. Meaning is.

Your Challenge

Find one thing in your day that you’re doing just because it’s what’s done. Then stop. Question it. And do it differently—or not at all.

Could be small:

  • Always check your email the second you wake up? Skip it. Take a walk instead.

  • Make the bed out of habit? Leave it messy and see how it feels.

  • Say “yes” to something just to be polite? Say “no” and watch the sky not fall.

The point isn’t to be rebellious. It’s to wake up. To notice what you’ve been sleepwalking through and ask, Is this me? Or just muscle memory?

One tiny rebellion today. That’s it.
