What’s your excuse?
I think we all limit ourselves.
I think many of us have an excuse that we create because we are scared to step out of our comfort zone and allow ourselves to be vulnerable.
Do you agree?
I recently watched a man in the security line at the Maui airport. He was delivering supplies to one of the gift shops (this was his job), and had a cart piled high with all kinds of snacks and goodies. He was trying to get through security – never fun. Right? He was whistling with a smile on his face and suddenly a bunch of stuff fell off of his cart and he didn’t seem to notice. My sister said, “Excuse me, but you dropped some stuff.” The man turned and said, “Can you help me? I am blind.”
This was a powerful moment for me to witness. I felt so in awe of this man.
He really seemed to be operating much differently than most of us:
1. He was not letting what most would consider a handicap hold him back.
2. He was open and willing to ask for and receive help – even from a stranger.
I don’t think many of us realize how fear-based thoughts and fear-based decision-making processes hold us back from claiming the success that we desire and that we deserve.
Why can’t you have the career that you desire? What is holding you back?
Go ahead…

Now list 3 ways you can step forward and stop holding yourself back. Yes, you can include asking for help and being open to receiving it. I believe when we ask for the lesson the teacher will appear.
