Look Out for the Little Guy!

by Scott Lang

You are in this place and time for a reason, and no one else is. And so—when that next uncertain, unlikely, “impossible” step is revealed to you—I urge you with every particle in my body, Pym or otherwise, to turn that “Why me?” into a “Why not me?”

Tears are acidic, which means they dissolve stuff. But not just chemically—spiritually. They don’t dissolve your strength. They dissolve the glue that keeps you sealed into an earlier version of yourself.

Don’t dam up that flood, let it roll over you, because in the end it will wash you clean. Not of the past—just the voice telling you to stay there.

You are so much more than who you “were.” Especially as you get further away from what shaped you in the past. You aren’t limited by who you are. Or at least the way others describe you. You are what you can do. To rebuild is to take what you know how to do—no matter how unconventional or questionable that skill might seem to you now—and figure out how to do it differently. How to use it to take your life in a new direction. A better one.

observe your team, learn the correct leadership style for them, be clear and direct, and show that you understand where they’re coming from.
