Your weirdness makes you wonderful.

You can choose to run away from it and let the judgements of others creep in. Or you can choose to own it.

Here are 5 famous names who have proven that weirdness wins.

Steven Bartlett doesn't believe in alarms.

Yet, his net worth is £300 million and he's won prizes at the Black British Business Awards and the Great British Entrepreneur Awards!

2. Mark Zuckerberg

Yet at 23, he became the world's youngest self-made billionaire, with the launch of Facebook. His repetitive dressing reduces the number of decisions he has to make.

3. Bill Gates

4. Sara Blakely

Although Sara Blakely, CEO of Spanx, lives close to her office, she drives around her neighbourhood on a “fake commute” for an hour before heading work.
