Your story has value - own it!


Reader,

It's 9.17pm on Sunday as I'm writing this newsletter that I should have sent by 9am today.

And I really didn't feel like doing this when it's almost my bedtime for an early morning start tomorrow at 4.45am.

Then I remind myself - this effort is the work that's building my dream.

One brick at a time. One email at a time.

So here we are!

Today's topic is about owning your story.

Because your story has value.

All the decisions you made, the actions you took, the ups and downs - they all have value.

They belong to you - they make you who you are - and that's valuable.

I arrived at this conclusion after re-writing my About section on LinkedIn for the 101th time.

It never felt right - it didn't truly capture what I'm about.

Then I realized that's because instead of owning my story, my results, and my experience, I was comparing my growth with people around me.

It made me feel like I wasn't good enough.

And that what I had accomplish wasn't anything to talk about or share.

But that's not true.

Because you can always help one person by sharing your lessons and insights from your story and experience.

So instead of doing comparing with others and feeling 'less than', I'm owning my story -

  • The business growth that seems too slow - but perfect for me
  • The career that seems less than impressive - but worked out well for me
  • The decisions that I thought were big mistakes - but taught me invaluable lessons

I share more in this week's podcast episode.
