Feb 27, 2019 - Is your best biased? How do you know you are at your best or doing your best? Is it based on others’ expectations? Is it based on what you believe you should be doing? Is it driven by a need or self-expectation that you must do it all on your own? If you are defining what is best based on everything outside of you in
people, circumstances, and situations, you may very well be limiting how truly great you are and can be.
Take an MM&I Moment to awaken to what truly makes you feel and do your best. What gets you excited and motivated? What could you spend hours doing and yet it seems like only a small amount of time has passed? How could you delegate certain tasks that don’t excite you, so you can focus on what does? How has your definition of best become biased by others’ influence? How does this intimidate or limit you instead of elevate and
motivate you? Instead of measuring and comparing your best to others, focus on being the best you as a result of all the unique qualities, talents and abilities you bring. Believing in yourself is the first step towards your greatness.
