When did you last think about what you do well?

If I asked you to make a list of five exciting skills or talents that you bring to the world, how long would it take to come up with the list?

• What if it was a list of five things that you simply 'do well'?

• What if it was five things that you love about yourself?

• What if it was ten things?

• Twenty...

  
  

When did you last think about what you do well?

One of the self-replicating source codes behind our limiting beliefs is our ability to play down or overlook the things we are good at. If we were sat round table talking about our strengths, we'd all feel much more confirmable celebrating what we admire about someone else in the room, than what we admire about ourselves.

And so our self-value, our esteem, our ego slowly shrinks. For no reason other than sheer habit, we become comfortable in reducing our self-worth.

Not today, José!

I refer you to my original question: How long would it take you to come up with a list of five exciting skills or talents that you bring to the world?

1. Go make the list (forget the time)

2. Keep it safe

3. Next week, add a sixth item

4. The week after, make it seven

   
   

Deliberately catch yourself displaying those skills... or doing something that you do well, or that you are proud of... or (trickiest of all) that you love about yourself. Then add a weekly reminder in your phone to go back to it.

Even if you don't add one thing every week, at the very least you're pausing to give attention to your unique genius.
