The Law of Jante is best describes by Brazilian novelist Paulo Coelho :-
“You aren’t worth a thing, nobody is interested in what you think,
mediocrity and anonymity are your best bet. If you act this way, you
will never have any big problems in life.”
The Law of Jante focuses on the feeling of jealousy and envy. This is one of its negative aspects, but there is something far more dangerous.
And law of jante is accountable for the world being manipulated in all possible manners by politicians who have no fear of what the others say and end up practicing the evil they desire.
We see a huge abyss between the rich and the poor of the world, social injustice on all sides, unbridled violence, people being forced to give up their dreams because of unfair and cowardly attacks.
Mediocrity may be comfortable, up to the day that tragedy knocks at the door and people start to wonder: “but why did nobody say anything, if everybody could see that this was going to happen?”
Answer is simple: nobody said anything because the others did not say anything either.
So in order to prevent things from growing any worse, maybe this is the right moment to write and practice the Anti-Law of Jante:
Anti Law of Jante “You are worth far more than you think. Your work and presence on this Earth are important, even though you may not think so. Of course, thinking in this way, you might have many problems because you are breaking the Law of Jante – but don’t feel intimidated by them, go on living without fear and in the end you will win.”
Our Morality also recommend that we must: Eliminate Fear, Generate good Beliefs, Have beautiful Imaginations, Visualize our Dreams, Create New, Live with success and Happiness; of course we have to pay the cost of that, but its worth living by Anti-Law of Jante rather than be hooked by evils and practice Law of Jante.
