E26 How to Position Yourself as an Expert |IBGR | Donna Kunde & Londina Cruz

“No matter what our achievements might be, we think well of ourselves only in rare moments. We need people to bear witness against our inner judge, who keeps book on our shortcomings and transgressions.” – Eric Hoffer There’s not much room for humbleness when you are trying to position yourself as an expert. Some of the best ways to position yourself as an expert include testimonials and social proof. Time to toot your own horn! Fear is the enemy of greatness and stops us from showing ourselves as the amazing, creating humans we are. It’s not who you are as much as how you share your story in order to position yourself as an expert.

E27 Fear is a Speed Bump on Your Way to Awesome |IBGR | Donna Kunde & Londina Cruz

“Until you confront the fear, the past is the only future" - William Eastman Start with a plan and then 10x it. A tree never limits its growth on purpose. Be the tree! Your future is yours to create. Learn from the past but don’t continue to live in it. That only leads to depression. Don’t let current circumstances dictate your future either. Tomorrow does not have to look like today. Plan the first step to a desired future and then take that step.

“Anything acquired without effort, and without cost is generally unappreciated.” – Napoleon Hill There is a big price to pay for your success. But that doesn’t mean we should neglect ourselves.

E20 The Power of a Made-Up Mind |IBGR | Donna Kunde & Londina Cruz “The energy of the mind is the essence of life. -- Aristotle Thought, backed by a strong desire, has a tendency to transmute itself into its physical equivalent.
