How often do we go on the defensive when we are given feedback or even just asked a question? Our tendency is to push back instead of looking within. After all, we couldn't have done anything wrong. We all have areas of opportunity and what I've found over the years is egos, blaming, excuses have no room being in a place where people want to be better. Pointing fingers creates a smoke screen that clouds our ability to see the task at hand. A task that we can all benefit from. A task to look beyond ourselves at what truly matters. The goal, the dream, the commitment, the promise; whatever you are pursuing be blessed to receive guidance, coaching, lessons, and experience. Be open to taking it all in and investing in yourself and others. It's not about you, but about what you can provide to others. It's what being a servant leader means. To be of service is to realize what you can offer others and what they can offer you. We aren't perfect so we mustn't act like it. Pay attention to the people willing to support you by being honest with you about things they see that you may not. Sometimes we need someone who wants to help us get back on track when we get off it. It's ok to be vulnerable. Vulnerability is not a weakness. It is something that empowers others to know they matter in your life and gives them the ok to know they can be vulnerable with you. It is a real strength. It creates a stronger you. A stronger you that realizes that to be better you have to be willing to listen to the possibility of what better can be.
Believe In The Unbelievable that is YOU and my prayer for you today is that you seek out those willing to be a part of your journey. An honest, true, real part of it. May you find those blessings, and may you be willing to be that someone for others.
Have a blessed, safe, and healthy week everyone.
