What’s Up With You Lately and How You Can Use It to Inspire Others

Ah there’s something amiss. Did you see it? Have you felt it?

It’s you.

Covered under a wave of insecurity and oblivion. Too busy to notice the “you” that’s in process.

I was watching Oprah the other day and admiring the women who courageously put themselves on the line to start change in life. It was so inspiring that I almost forgot myself in the process.

Have you ever done that? And are you doing that now?

Bypassed the triumphs, celebrations, and obstacles you’ve overcame because you were too busy and obsessed with what others have done?

It’s easy to overlook your own successes when, for example, you think about how far you are from where you want to go. Or when you look over your shoulder and sit in the shadow of someone else’s grandeur.

It’s easy and understandable, but if this post reminds you to stop doing so, then that’s a good thing. Because remembering what makes you unique and embracing your own journey can only help lift you higher and get your business going farther, if you do so.

Next time you catch yourself looking over your brother’s shoulder, smile, be happy for him, then take a bow. Because something tells me that if you’re reading this, you too have come along way from the difficulties and adversity in your own life. And for that you need to celebrate, be grateful, cherish who you are and be proud of sharing your obstacles with others.

That’s how you become inspiring. And that’s how you transform where you are into the dream you have for yourself.

So good luck, my friends! And standing ovation for you all.
