Who We Think We Are Not
Some days it seems as though I allow "who I think I'm not" to affect every aspect of my life.
I say . . .
In photography -- "I am not" a good photographer . . .
In writing poetry or other such things -- "I am not" a good writer . . .
In playing my clarinet or singing -- "I am not" a good musician . . .
In just about anything -- "I am not".
Why must I have this kind of outlook on my life? Yes, I will always have room to grow and improve. Yes, there will always be someone who is "better" than me. But why should I let any of that hold me back?
The truth -- I SHOULDN'T ALLOW THAT TO HAPPEN!
"It's not who we are that holds us back. It's who we think we're not." ~ Michael Nolan
