It’s you.
You are the voice inside your head, saying all those negative things.
You are the one amplifying your greatest fears.
Dwelling on your mistakes.
Focusing on your flaws.
Doubting whether you have what it takes.
Repeating again and again that your shortcomings are all that really matter, that you shouldn’t even try to play big.
You would never stand for this with an actual boss.
If a friend told you they were being treated this way, you’d be outraged.
So, when are you going to fire you?
Because you deserve better.
You deserve a voice that emphasizes all the things that come easily to you.
The things that we know we get every time we interact with you.
Your strengths, your wow, your moxie, the things that make you shine.
“That was really great, amazing job, I’m proud of you,” is not the first half of the sentence, it is the whole sentence.
Take a moment, write them down, paste it somewhere.
Five great things about you.
