revolutionary if necessary.
the daily show reported recently that scientists in japan had invented a robot that is capable of recognizing its own reflection in a mirror. "when the robot learns to hate what it sees," said jon stewart, "it will have achieved full humanity.” (steven pressfield)
funny because it’s true. sad because it’s true.
why? why are we so damn hard on ourselves? why do we feel unworthy? why do we lack confidence?
when will we realize we deserve to dream? when will we feel confident in our own skin? when will we connect with our real purpose? when?
take a look at the various ways you put yourself down, the ways in which you sabotage yourself. the harsh things you whisper to the mirror each and every day. push them all to the side with a grand flourish.
because this is it. you are never going to be someone else. you are you. so get to know that person intimately. and make full use of your unique gifts.
begin a list of your strengths, the characteristics you have that fit the goals you imagine. the reasons why you deserve to live your very best life. lay them out in front of you in glorious style.
then outline the actions that will fuel the dreams. confront and challenge the old messages and outdated stories. let go of the lies in your head and in your heart. the ones that leave no room for possibility.
get in touch with your liveliness and your loveliness, your spirit and your vitality. be rebellious and fierce. revolutionary if necessary.
and if I asked you to name all the things that you love, how long would it take to name yourself? (unknown)
list yourself [insert name here] at the top of your strengths. YOU are your biggest asset. act like it. *******
