Thanks for sharing this, even if I think there’s absolutely no need to do the things other people do, ever.

All you need to do is to teach yourself how to love different things.

It helps to speak a language also spoken by the people you're talking with. It helps to wear a skirt or pants while shopping in the grocery store.

There's a continuum.

Not sure I understand what you mean. Can you please try to make it clearer to me? Thanks.

For example you and I cannot have this exchange of comments without using a language we both speak. That's an example of doing things other people do, whether you want to or not, in order to achieve your own goals.
