protecting yourself from a loss is a life unlived. i fearlessly believed in my original dream so much that it hurt when it didn't happen. so i set myself up to protect myself from ever failing again. but that got me nowhere.

you need to win most days. it is important that you are not just writing the end goal. if that is leaps and bounds away you won't get there and you will get lost along the way.

i know i am breaking year after year of terrible habits. the two things we should never do as women be great all on our own and ask for help. the two things contradict one another but you get what i am saying.

ever felt like that? oh i have been living in that place recently.

and guess what i was insanely specific again. like my list is crazy. but that is exactly it. if you want something you have to know the measure so you can check the box. does this measure up nope can i get them there nope MOVE ON. it is that simple but you have to choose to be specific and not settle for anything that is not that. yes you may be waiting awhile but perfection is worth the wait.

it does not always lie in the positive. sometimes the very reason you are capable is because of all of the negative. you can either let that push you or stop you and why fall prey to something out of your control.

it cannot be according to anyone else. when we do that "normal" according to life, we draw the short end of the stick more often than not.

there is no security anyways. so what happens if you fail trying the likelihood that you fail either way is pretty high. so at least fail forward in something you love.

are you listening or listening for opportunities to prove your worth. see that is the difference between adding value or adding ego.

lacking specificity leaves it up to interpretation. there is danger there especially when you involve other people. when you think about competing with yourself that is even more dangerous.
