Choose Bravery

“I wish I had the courage to speak up in meetings like him.” “If only I had the nerve to ask for a promotion like she did.” “I can’t believe she quit her soul-sucking job without a plan—I’d never be brave enough to do something like that!” I hear phrases like this all the time as people step back and observe the choices and behavior of those around them. And it honestly kills me, because thinking like that gives all of your power away, my friends... I promise you this—there is no courage gene... bravery is something you must choose. Wrap up the week by doing something brave, even if it feels silly and insignificant right now. Start practicing, because when you play small, you stay small, and we all deserve killer careers and big, juicy lives. Get after yours.
