When you’re feeling puny and intimidated, practice a power pose!
This video will lift you up and put you in a more positive mindset.
“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, ‘Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?’ Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” ― Marianne Williamson, A Return to Love: Reflections on the Principles of “A Course in Miracles”
“Children are happy because they don’t have a file in their minds called “All the Things That Could Go Wrong.”
― Marianne Williamson

Content We’ve Learned From:

- Why you must take time to cultivate trust in your market.
- Why you must do and say what you believe – be authentic!
- Why get out of the house and spend time with people.
- Why it pays to have a generous spirit.
- Why your marketing has to be about THEM, not YOU.
- Why we love being with people who ‘get us’. (Even direct competitors.)
I (Kelly) have really enjoyed reading Simon’s book, Start With Why.
