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
