You can't be like the others because you are not the others. You are yourself. Everyone is their own person and they are all different. You can't be like everyone. Be yourself and you will be as close to the others as you can be. Don't do things because other people do them. Do things because you want to do them. Don't waste your time trying to be someone else, darling.

Well first off, why would you want to be like everyone else? Being like everyone else is silly, because there's only one you in the world. If you use yourself to try and imitate someone else, isn't that like killing yourself to become a worse copy of someone else?
Fitting in is something we all want to do. And I understand that, so here's some help, I guess. Just watch what the people you admire do (but please please try to admire the right people). See how they act around others, how they talk, how they think. And then if you like that behavior, copy it and consciously do it until one day you realize that it's as part of your personality as anything else.

You were not born to waste your time to be like others. You are amazing the way you are and accept yourself for who you are because life is too short to waste it to be like others

Because you are amazing as yourself and shouldn't want to form into society and the norm. Being different is good and others should want to be like you, not the other way around.

Because every of us are unique - and that's great. Just try to imagine the world where everyone would be the same, wearing the same and doing the same - it would be really boring. So you should be happy to be different, you make this world better!
