All I can say is that I absolutely love this—it’s worth taking 17 minutes to watch. It seems to reiterate that all I ever needed to know I learned in kindergarten! Nothing beats transparency and honesty.
I absolutely love this TED talk. Social scientist Amy Cuddy discusses how body language can actually change your life for the better. This is so true. I don’t know about you, but I my best memories and decisions were made when I felt empowered and confident. That is what fuels change for the better. My mom used to tell me in high school that I should “Fake it till you make it” Wow –who knew that would become such sage advice. I love the theory that you fake it till you become it!!! That way you aren’t really an undeserving imposter. Hopefully, watching this quick video will be a baby step toward more confidence!
Even an 11 year old gets it! It is amazing how we forget the basics as we age. We allow life experiences to cloud our judgement into thinking that this journey is about money, technology, and believing what we are told. The perspective of child can really help open the mind to educate ourselves and seek out new truths! This journey is about prioritizing yourself, the people you love, and opening your mind daily to new ideas and concepts. Jeez, I hope Sidney marries this kid someday!
