I don’t think you can handle rejection or failure. Notice how you feel when I say those things to you. Does part of you want to defend yourself?

Instead start defending yourself and what you’re capable of. Because just like Henry Ford said: “Whether you think you can or you can’t, either way you’re right.” Much love, PS: What I’m reading: The Boys in the Boat - Daniel Brown |

And although it’s hardwired into us for survival… It’s possible to minimise the power it has over us. Here are 3...
It’s something you might do without noticing. Something that slowly chips away at your self-confidence. Something that destroys your integrity and self-worth. It’s a silent but deadly enemy called: Breaking promises to yourself. Sound familiar? “I’ll get back to you on Friday” “Next year I’m going to start a business” “Tomorrow morning I’m going to the gym” Every time you say you’ll do something and you don’t: You slowly erode the relationship between you and your word. You slowly deteriorate...
