Asking for help shouldn't be viewed as a sign of weakness. "Acting Tough" shouldn't be confused with being mentally or physically strong. The upcoming fear of asking for help is what stands out. The fear that others will think less of us, talking about our feelings is a sign of weakness, the problem is embarrassing, or not knowing who can help us in a moment of crisis. We must remind ourself that it takes strength to admit we can't do it all. Isn't it strong to show we are trying to deal with humility, fear, embarrassment, feeling uncomfortable? I offer you the mantra, "Being vulnerable is a sign of strength." Today I share a few tips on ways we can ask for help without feeling guilty or weak in that moment.

Discussing life with the Maggie Kurdirka (Bald Ballerina)! We have one life to live and even life changing news didn't pull this one down. Through her many channels and platforms, Maggie openly shares her story with the world and donates money and raises awareness for Metastatic Breast Cancer!

"I was a member of the Joffrey Concert Group in NYC when I was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer in June 2014. I was only 23 years old and had no risk factors for breast cancer other than being female. Results from a subsequent genetics screening showed that I did not carry the genes linked to breast cancer."

Hitting us hard with a pep talk:

Have you ever been taught to “reach for success? I know I have. What is the definition of that success, and can it look different on each of us? Success to one may look completely different to another.

Don’t be afraid to use your imagination and dream BIG. Be creative, be messy, don’t settle! Our potential only increases with age. Just like a fine wine my friends. Train to become incredible. No one is an overnight success.

We often try and find our purpose, but in reality we hold the paintbrush, so paint the purpose you want for yourself. Evolve your masterpiece each day, one stroke at a time. No one can call it pretty but you. Be your own Degas, Monet, or Michael Angelo!

Be Infatuated or be vanilla!! No such thing as half ass. If you want something GO FOR IT! The time is now! Act now. Do what you want to do!
