I am

 I am uncertain. I am indecisive. I am slow. I am unprepared. I am scared. I am failing.

 “I am” is a most powerful concept when combined with words describing yourself. Those words can make you or break you without you even being aware.

“I am” describes who you believe you are. It describes what you believe you are capable of. What you think of yourself. What you could be or what you have become.

 It may be the most defining moment in your life if you take 15 minutes to write down whatever comes to mind after those two words: “I am...”

 “I am” defines who your friends are, the places you go, what you spend your time on, the stuff you buy for yourself, the things you are quoted as saying.

 “I am” leads you to know who you are and where you are going. “I am” may take you places you never thought possible; or it may take you places you never wanted to go – that you never signed up for.

 It defines how you deal with your past. It helps create the future you are moving towards.

 Those words are hardwired to your WHY. It becomes part of your vision for yourself. The reason you’re doing what you’re doing. Or not doing. It lives in your mind – in the tiny voice that speaks to you, that nobody else can hear.

 “I am slow.”

“I am not ready.”

“I am incapable.”

“I am not strong enough.”

“I am underqualified.”

“I am not talented enough.”

“I am not the best person for this.”

 “I am” must NOT be what someone once said. That rude remark that kept lingering. “I am” must NOT be what others believe you to be. You don’t need their permission. “I am” belongs to you!

 “I am ready.”

“I am prepared.”

“I am confident.”

“I am qualified.”

“I am focused.”

“I am capable.”

“I am strong.”

“I am determined.”

“I am victorious.”

“I am blessed.”

“I am loved.”

“I am…”

 Don’t let your tiny voice be someone else’s voice. Let it be YOUR voice. And let it inspire you to be all that you can be. Because you are capable of more than you can imagine!
