Two Things All Business Professionals Need for Success
Courage & Confidence.
10:30pm, the night before my flight to NYC this week, I had an idea to hire a photographer for my speech in Times Square. So I posted a quick ad on craigslist. I was determined and confident that I would find someone. During my flight, I connected with a freelancer that emailed me. It worked!
Two hours after I landed, Christian, a super talented photographer met up with me and went to work.
Heavy rain didn't stop us from getting a few shots in before my speech. Christian did an amazing job capturing these moments as I tried to shake the rain off my jacket. Courage to meet a stranger brought me what I wanted.
Have Courage to stand up and not be afraid what others say.
Be Confident in the decisions you make.
Your courage and confidence will allow you to forge ahead in life. Do not let others stop you from being great, sharing ideas and being yourself.
I don't want to be better than you. I want to be the best I can be.
Today, I challenge you to step out of your comfort zone and do something bold. Do something that scares you. Reach out to someone you never thought you could. When you do tell me about it.
Have a successful week ahead!
