Get Weird by CJ Casciotta

I don't know about you, but I remember spending much of my school years trying to "fit in" with everyone else. Being different was not cool. I think it still feels that way when I go on social media and connect with some of those same people. But CJ Casciotta says weird is good and it is important to stand out in his new book, Get Weird.

In Get Weird, Casciotta reminds us all that we each were made by our Creator to be different and that every one of us matters. Instead of trying to fit in, he encourages us all to embrace our weirdness and to stand out. He tells us that weirdness is "the essence of creativity, the stuff of movements, and the hope of humanity." This book is divided into three sections: Why are you so weird?, What to make of your weirdness, and How your weirdness will change us. At the back of the book, Casciotta shares his weirdness manifesto.

Get Weird is a book that will definitely appeal to the people who are already marching to the beat of a different drummer.  Yet it is a book that could benefit most people to help us all see how we could be a bit different make some positive changes in the world. Casciotta shares a lot of fun stories of famous people and people he knows as he encourages all readers to embrace their weirdness and be a unique individual who might just make some big changes in our society. It is an interesting read for all of us, but especially for creatives.
