We have gone through a lot these past few years. It's easy to complain, feel bad, and remember the better times. I get it. I have been there a couple of times myself recently wishing for a different outcome. Then, I sit back and think about the things I have in my life that many do not: loving family relationships, lasting friendships, general health and well-being, and a dog. These things matter. A person that has opened my mind has been Gary Vaynerchuk. He is a well known businessman and influencer that speaks openly about gratitude, patience, and accountability. In watching a recent video, it reminded me once again to be grateful to be alive for one more day to do the things that I love on this planet. Warning: Gary does curse a bit, but his message is what I listen to. If it offends you, I apologize in advance.

This quote by Brené Brown is the essence of vulnerability. We do it anyway, even when there is no chance for success. This can be in the form of a relationship, job, move, education, money, etc. Everyone is going to be vulnerable based on what they are currently worried about. The key is to realize that we are not worried about winning or losing. We are here to do what is right and move ourselves forward. This is hard and long. It's not about gaining short wins, but playing the long game. What are you willing to be vulnerable about? I am letting go of my self-doubt and trying to take on more challenges that frighten me. It's not because I love constant challenges. This is not me. The main reason is so I don't regret my life by holding on to status quo. While I was writing this down, this image came into my mind. Most of the time, our most vulnerable point is where the magic happens. |
