Since it might be unclear as to exactly what “Khakified” is, I will define it here. “Khakified” is a term coined for the pressure of society against the nonconformist. Society, in general, wants everyone to be the same. It is easier to manage and easier to control. In the words of Dr. David Foster, society wants you to be, “beige.” That feeling of invisibility is what I call being, “Khakified.” Feeling invisible can make a person lose self-confidence. “I’m just not that important.” “I don’t matter.” The truth is, anyone feeling this way is just like you or me. The only difference is that they do not have a house, a job, a spouse, arms or legs, etc. Give that a thought.
