Last week, I met with a woman and the first things she said when we sat down was, “You’re bigger.” And then I responded, “What do you mean?” Her next words were, “Well your shoulders are broader and you’re looking manly. I see your workout videos and you look manly.”
Imagine, the creator of the universe gave you the keys to open and create opportunities and you refuse to move due to your “fears.” Insane right? How many doors have we refused to knock on because of fear?
“When you get on a plane, the flight safety video always stresses the importance of putting your own oxygen mask on before helping another person. This same theory applies to your daily life as well. You cannot help someone else when you’re drowning.”
“We’re taught from a young age that success is a destination. This teaching tends to distract us from the reality of the process. When we’re too destination focused, we tend to miss out on the lessons and growth in the journey that is happening right now.”
“You have to be confident in yourself. Never let another person’s insecurities shut down your confidence. A lot of times, insecure people find strength in pulling others down to their level.”
