My counselor Eleanor recently said to me, "Mike, if you're trying to prove something, it means you don't actually believe it yet." Her words hit me right between the eyes, as they often do. She was right and as I reflect on certain aspects of my life, I can see that where I'm overly attached to proving myself, it's because I don't actually believe in my own skill, talent, or value (i.e. I'm looking for outside validation to "prove" my worth)...maybe you can relate to this?
In this week's video blog, I talk about this phenomenon and how we can move from "proving" to "believing" in an authentic way.
