Courage for Beginners

Courage is created by activity, rejection, and results

Today let’s squash a few bugs in the programming of how things are supposed to be. No lectures – just acceptance:

You never know when the moment’s going to be squandered and left…

And you didn’t say what you wanted to say…

You didn’t express yourself…

You didn’t do it because you were afraid…

You were afraid of what others would think about you…

You should be able to express what you think and what you feel…

Express yourself not to hurt people’s feelings…not to be mean, but just to be able to say what you want to say.

It is in our nature to judge. We judge the fruit before we put it into our shopping basket at the grocery store.

 

Remember, we will always be judged. It is in our nature to judge.  We judge the fruit before we put it into our shopping basket at the grocery store.

I do my best daily to be more and more self-aware.  With so much going on in my life, I sometimes forget to take a step back to see who’s following me and who’s leading me.

Let other people brag about what interests them; your objective is to influence and bring value to the other person, not to prove you are better than them.

I will leave you with this:

  • Think excellence
  • Set kick-ass examples
  • Speak up
  • Let other people help you
  • Take risks and take action

About Author

AUTHOR
Sharon is an award-winning presenter and 3-time author, including her latest book "Middle Finger Happiness... work hard. live well. don't fuck with mem." She happily wears this book title as one of her favorite tattoos.

Since 2015, she's been pumping out her glorious and quirky, no-filter writing abilities as the creative-head of the ever-popular blog The Bitchy Business Briefs.

She's an abstract Artist with a baller mixed-media studio in The Silos on Sawyer [the largest creative campus in the U.S.]
Sharon is the owner and Co-Founder of The Zapata Group [swiss army knife of creative consulting services]

...and she has a constantly growing podcast: Middle Finger Happiness [iTunes, Anchor, Spotify, Google]

Sharon suffers from having misdirected energy and creativity… So she writes her business ideas, her ‘briefs’ [small batch story telling] – and creates SMARTY-ASS quotes; keeps a lot of tiny notepads around her home to write them down. This is actually her therapy instead of taking pills.

A proud wife and mom to an 11-year old son and grown-up son, she requires an obscene amount of caffeine to get her through most days... doesn't play well with bigots or assholes.
