Quote by Ken Robinson

The Element is about discovering your self, and you can't do this if you're trapped in a compulsion to conform. You can't be yourself in a swarm.

The Element is about discovering your self, and you can't do

Summary

This quote highlights the idea that finding one's true self is not possible when one is constantly driven by the need to fit in or conform to societal expectations. It suggests that being part of a crowd or following the crowd's behavior inhibits individuality and self-discovery. To truly understand oneself and find one's "Element," it is necessary to break free from the compulsion to conform and embrace individuality without being influenced by the opinions or expectations of others.
