What’s stopping you from doing your best work? Living the life you deserve? Going after your Big Idea?
Is it that the odds are stacked up against you?
Or could it quite simply just be you?
This summer has been an explosion of awesome for me. I’ve traveled to new places, met new people and tried new things. Most importantly I have learned boatloads about myself through these new experiences. And the realization that hit me like a sack of bricks – I am the only one standing in my way. I’m the only one underestimating myself. And I’m the only one who is playing way small when I can be playing way, way big. Everyone else believes in me – even strangers.
It’s the same for you. Chances are, you’re the only one who is failing to notice your epic brilliance.
Everyone else is just waiting for you to step up to the plate and own it.
I talk a bit more about this in this post about my mountain climbing adventure.
Let’s make the rest of this year about really stepping into our brilliance.
Let’s take compliments at face value.
Let’s start taking action towards the life we’ve been dreaming of.
Let’s begin seeing ourselves in the same way that others do – as incredible creatures capable of taking on anything.
