STANDOUTS AND TAKEAWAYS
- In our leadership, we don’t rise to what we think is possible; we fall to what we believe we’re worthy of.
- “Self-confidence” is how we measure our skills, how we stack up against others, determine whether we are winning or losing. “Self-worth” is knowing you are enough EXACTLY AS YOU ARE.
- Although self-confidence is so important for building your achievements, self-WORTH is how you actually feel fulfilled when you get the achievements.
- Unshakable self-worth is critical to anyone who is brave enough to put themselves out there for a project, or leadership, or a creative work.
- The most prevalent form of “cancel culture” is us canceling ourselves before we even try something.
- Self-doubt is a form of trusting your own thoughts over what God says about you.
- When you are in a moment of self-doubt, simply ask yourself, “Who am I going to believe?”
- The first thought you have when you experience rejection is your definition of failure.
- Changing your relationship with rejection and failure allows you to get unstuck and start moving forward.
- When we are rejected and feel deflated, it’s most likely our CONFIDENCE (not self-worth) that is being deflated.
- We have the ability to redefine the meaning of a rejection—even from our past.
- Our ability to help others realize their worthiness is limited by our ability to realize that for ourselves. We cannot give away what we do not have.
- If you want your team to believe in themselves and the power of their ideas, you have to set an example.
- When employees feel like they are seen, and that they are valued, and that what they have to say matters, THAT is how you get employee retention.
- In your life, you are best positioned to serve the person you once were.
