Just Be Yourself. | Keynote Clarity for Thought Leaders with Jon Cook Flash Briefing
A few years ago, a rising basketball prospect was told people were saying he was the next Michael Jordan.
I love the young superstar’s response, “I don't want to be the next Michael Jordan, I only want to be me.”
His name? Kobe Bryant, who eventually became one of the most prolific scorers in the history of the NBA.
Each of us sees others who inspire us, even those whose message we would love to embody.
If you’re a speaker, you may dream of being the next Tony Robbins. If you’re an author, you may love the idea of being the next Brené Brown. If you’re a marketing specialist, maybe you so badly want to be seen as the next Gary Vee.
The world doesn’t need the next Tony Robbins or Brené Brown or Gary Vee. What it needs is the first you.
This isn’t a woo-woo message; this is an encouragement for you to simply be yourself. You have so much greatness and potential built into you that’s just waiting to come out and rock someone’s world.
Trying to be someone else will only rob the world of the extraordinary message you were born to embody.
Don’t try to be the next so-and-so. Be the first you, and rock who you are for the world to see.
