In this video, I’m sharing why I believe right now is a major opportunity for unconventional leaders, especially anyone
Using humor to fight limiting beliefs
I’ll say it again, humor is one of the best ways to disarm your limiting beliefs. Laughing at a belief reveals how little sense it makes, and frees you from feeling an obligation to hold yourself back according to it. What is one limiting belief you are ready to laugh out of your brain? Try
Bite sized is the way to go
When your problems feel so big that you don’t see a way out, remember that things can always be broken down into smaller, bite-sized steps. When you take time to map out the whole process and define your steps, things don’t feel so impossible anymore. Transcription: Sometimes problems can feel well, really big, and
Stop trying to give 600% (Your hypothetical “Enough Number”)
