Only then can we see.

6. The Scariest Thing To Be Is Yourself
🟢the courage to be different is the courage to think different, to see what others don’t see, to hear what others don’t hear.

7. Life Happens in Public. Get Used to It.
❎When we defer to fear, when we let it decide what we will and won’t do, we miss so much.
👉Not just success, but actualization.
8. Can’t Be Afraid to Ask
