“Loving others Unconditionally How we view others is often a mirror of how we view ourselves. Until we accept and love ourselves unconditionally, we may find it challenging to love and accept others unconditionally. Conversely, until we love and accept others unconditionally, we will be worried about what they think of us (since our thoughts are harsh and judgmental, we subconsciously expect others to be as well). Grace, compassion, and an open mind and heart toward others follows extending these things to ourselves. Consider… - If you believe you are doing the best that you know how…aren’t they? - If you have this battle of self-esteem…perhaps they do as well? - If you have these limiting beliefs…perhaps they do to? - If you had tough parents that negatively influenced your self-worth…is it possible they have similar struggles? - If you are trying to feel better…aren’t they as well? People yearn to be accepted as they are, without a laundry list of expectations. Most people don’t accept themselves, so when we accept them without reflecting to them the judgments they’ve made about themselves, we demonstrate unconditional love.”

“authenticity is you being the best you that you can possibly be. Your real self. Your powerful self. The self that is deep inside of you. That is your authentic self. That is your identity. That is where you are going. When you live out of that place, you are being authentic. Everything else is just baggage hiding the real, authentic you. And when you define yourself by that baggage, you create tons of limiting beliefs. When you are fully pressing into living out of your authentic self, you will change the world.”

“Whatever your Edge of greatness is, it will be uncomfortable. That’s why so many stay far away from their Edge. They may often imagine “taking the step”, imagining how frightening it would be, while longing for the thrill of triumph. Yet they play it safe. Fifty feet from the edge. They may wonder what the view is like, debating and theorizing with others about it. They may try to convince themselves that they’re not missing out, while admiring from a distance those who have stepped up to their own Edge. They may even make plans to walk to their Edge, spending days brainstorming detailed strategies and stocking up on “needed” supplies. Then, despite all the dreaming and planning…at the end of it all…they lie on their deathbed, filled with deep regret that they never stepped up all the way.”
