‘Ignore the haters. They will always be there, but you decide whether or not to let them drag you down.’

‘Embrace that you need to be positive to help the people around you thrive. You can choose to be the person who lifts others up, or the person who brings them down.’

‘Find the silver lining. If you can’t see there is potential good in a situation, you can’t make it happen.’

‘If you are going to spend any of your precious energy doubting something, doubt your limits, not your abilities.’

‘Opportunity is all around you, but if you are too busy gawking at obstacles, you’ll be blinded to those opportunities.’

‘It’s amazing how much better everyone else gets when you work on yourself.’

‘Nothing is more powerful than a positive mind.’

‘Opportunity doesn’t come knocking on your schedule. Good things come to those who persist.’

‘Lighten up and get going. If you don’t go the right way immediately, so what? Just dust yourself off, find the humor, and give it another go.’

‘Don’t think about what is possible for the person you used to be last year. Instead, think about what is possible for the person you want to become.’

Leading Yourself

Here is one POWERFUL question for you: ‘Do you feel worthy just because you are alive?’

What do you think?

Because ‘Our ability to be our own solution versus the thing that stands in the way of our success is the only way through and to the life we want for ourselves.’

‘We need to find a way to ground ourselves in our own self-worth, learning to validate ourselves.’

‘The important thing is to have self-confidence in the activities in your life that matter to you and a high sense of self-worth overall.’

‘It’s almost impossible to have strong self-confidence if we are in a constant state of doubting our worth.’

‘Understanding what we are amazing at and what we are suck at are critical to building self-confidence.’

‘If you don’t get comfortable with your own self-imposed limitations, someone else will happily step in to limit your potential.’

‘We must understand and name our fears if we are to conquer them.’

‘The things we fear can impact our decision-making, our ability to innovate, and even the morale of those around us.’

‘The steps we take are more important than how large those steps were.’

‘When we learn how to focus on a bigger mission, it will make overcoming any irrational fears or even facing real obstacles easier to bypass.’

‘Without the will to be different or better, change can never be sustainable.’
