Better Than You Were
Manage episode 440195612 series 3600182
In this episode I talk about some of my experiences with negative situations and how they impacted me. I want to encourage you to always strive to be better than you were.
Since I was very young, no matter my surroundings, I have always felt out of place and inferior to the people around me. I always drag the anvil of feeling I don't belong or am not good enough to share the company of others in most situations. This may be why I have been compelled to open so many businesses over the years, to create a world of my own where I feel comfortable and knowledgeable. The one quality most champions have is the belief that they will one day be champions. I have never known that feeling, but the one thing I built my entire existence on and still motivates me today is this. I absolutely refuse to accept that I am not good enough, and no matter how you make me feel by my being in your presence, I will show up anyway. Even knowing I would feel awkward and out of place, I would still show up. To me, facing the fear of looking dumb or inadequate is a way lesser disservice to myself than the tragedy of allowing those feelings to control my life and possible success. I promised myself when I was young that I would not accept the cards dealt to me, and that determination carries me through each day. Remember, the only person you have to be better than is the person you were yesterday. If you do that, I promise your life will change. Never accept that you have done all you can; there is always more work to be done and more to accomplish. Proving others wrong feels tremendous, but nothing compares to proving yourself wrong, especially in the face of doubt.
Life can be a losing fight. Let's win it together.
