![“Stop wearing that mask that is trying to be a match for everybody, and realise that you have to have more of a 1s and 10s model. A 1s and 10s model means that if you want to be a 10 for somebody you have to risk being a 1 for somebody else. [...] You wanna express who you really are.” quote by Steve Pavlina](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/d28/steve-pavlina-3958_advice_stop-wearing-that-mask-that-is-trying-to_1418381.jpg)
