Remember Who You Are.
In a time of deep self-doubt, a wise mentor said:
“You need to remember who you are”
I was drowning in waves of public opinion, second-guessing and uncertainty.
Masking exhaustion and insecurity while maintaining a strong face
So I remembered:
I am strong, smart, and skillful.
Caring, principled, and thoughtful.
Willing to listen, to learn—and to lead through the hard calls.
And I remembered who I’m not:
Not here to please everyone.
Not like anyone else.
Not in a competition.
As one of my clients says:
“I am not here by accident.”
When the noise is loudest I come back to this:
I am exactly who I need to be. My best, most thoughtful response, made with care and the information I have at the time, will be good - and good enough. We’ll all keep growing and learning together from there.What helps you remember who you are when doubt sets in?
