A Golden Mantra- If You Do Not Belong To The Room!

A Golden Mantra- If You Do Not Belong To The Room!

You enter a room full of executives and you immediately start doubting yourself!


Do I belong here?

Do I have the required presence?

Do I have anything to contribute?


Then with butterflies kicking in…

Your body closes itself down for safety,

Your words shut themselves up in a shell,?

You become conscious of every move you make,


And you end you feeling awkward, appearing awkward and sounding awkward.?


Ever experienced this?


Not belonging in the room,

Not having a voice,

Doubting yourself for the capability that you bring to the table.


I have. Not once or twice but innumerable times.


I can give you a thousand examples but let me come straight to the point.


A golden mantra that changed my life!


That enabled me to consistently be in rooms that were beyond me,


And make my mark there- despite being a shy introvert.


A single thing that you need to focus on:


YOUR BELIEF:


I ADD VALUE WHEREVER I GO!


Step into this new empowering belief and your life will change forever.


3 steps:

  1. Embrace this new powerful belief
  2. Go with an intention to contribute and
  3. Add massive value


I promise that you will end up stepping into your multiplier effect!


Knowing that when you enter a room, you multiply- your skillset, your strengths, your expertise, your experience and your wins.


And that will enable you to consistently?

  • tear walls,?
  • shatter limitations,?
  • make raving fans &?hence,
  • create a multiplier effect in life!


You won’t know until you do it.


You know what I mean :-)

Lovely mantra. Agree as I resonate with it - as I always think this way, am proactive, choose to approach people, instead of waiting for them to do so. ?? ??
