Believe in yourself

I saw this photo on Instagram and it first resulted in a laugh, then a head shake and finally some serious pondering. Why do mediocre white men or for that matter mediocre people have so much confidence? We all see how they fall short of greatness yet they continue to firmly believe in their excellence. This made me wonder what would happen if I firmly believed in my own excellence for a day? Not once questioning myself or second guessing my intuition. Well, the result of my test first made me smile, then shake my head and finally laugh. I was happy. I was so happy. I was happier then I've been in a long time and I believe this happiness sprung from an internal focus versus external. When I invested my energy on greenhousing my thoughts and ideas instead of looking for someone to validate them I released myself from self-doubt shackles. I encourage you all to experiment with unapologetic, firmly believing in your excellence. Have confidence in your greatness.
