In what ways do people today still struggle with tensions between individuality and conformity?

There are some people that goes along with the crowd and some people who separates themselves from the rest of the group. Tensions between individuality and conformity comes from doing something for you vs doing something for yourself. A person that conforms wouldn't be a transcendentalist because he or she is only trying to please themselves for selfish reasons. A person that's an indival would be a transcendentalist because he or she helps other people for good reasons.

Individuality is what separates you from everyone else.
Go along wig every one else
Transcendentalist - are people who believe that you can connect with god nature.
Self Reliance-  Relief on your self, don't depend on everyone else
