    Change begins within yourself. You have to change how you think, the way you see thing in the world, your actions, your habits, the way you interact with people, how you talk to people and how you react.

    Take a snap shot of where you are right now and what is going on in your life. Take any emotion out of it and just be real with yourself. How is your health? What is your net worth? How are your relationships? Are you happy?

    Be detailed and honest with yourself. Bring a level of clarity and awareness to your life. This is your life and your responsibility to make it better or worse than it is now.

    This a a great book that talks about the power of vulnerability. There is no shame in vulnerability. Putting yourself out there even though you have failed before is a great skill to cultivate. In baseball it is like stepping up to the plate to a pitcher who has been striking you out all day.

    You need to be completely honest with yourself and everyone else. Honest about your strengths and your weaknesses.

    Put your true self out there no matter what happens.
    Be open to criticism and feedback of others.
    Be so confident in your own skin that others opinions of you have no effect on you as a person.

    Everyone is going through there own battles but you being open about yours makes it easier for other people.

  • Blog #40 – Let’s be Honest Here

    Honesty and dishonest are a fork in the road. Each one goes to some place else. Once you chose one you are on that road. You will keep making that decision to stay on that road because if you want to chose the other road you will have to go all the way back to the original fork.

    If you are dishonest with yourself or anyone it leads to mistrust.

    Trust is a castle that must be protected. The castle can be as strong as stone or as weak as sand. The more honest you are the stronger the castle will be. Each time you say something true and follow through with your promises you are building this trust castle. The castle only gets stronger or it collapses. If something is done to lose that trust then the castle melts away like sand and cannot be rebuilt.

    This is true for trusting other people, them trusting you, and you trusting yourself.
