" That's the thing. Sometimes when you sacrifice something precious, you're not really losing it. You're just passing it on to someone else."
Mitch Albom, The five people you meet in heaven
Brenè Brown is one of my favourite up lifters. Her research on shame, vulnerability and whole hearted living opens up the darkest places inside ourselves and let's the light in.
In one of the videos marathon streaming on my iPad, she says this:
"When perfectionism is driving, shame is always riding shotgun and fear is the annoying backseat driver."
"If I look perfect, live perfect, work perfect, I can avoid or minimize criticism, blame, and ridicule."
"All perfectionism is, is the 20 ton shield that we carry around hoping that it'll keep us from being hurt -when in truth, what it does is it keeps us from being seen."
"Healthy striving is internally focussed. It's 'I want to do this I and be the best that I can be. Perfectionism is not about 'what I want', it's 'what will people think?' You can't ever do anything brave if you're wearing a straitjacket of 'what will people think?'"

From #worldclass leadership coach, Robin Sharma:
"I honor you for who you're becoming. I celebrate you for the fears you're releasing. I applaud you for the incremental yet beautiful work you're producing.
Know, you--and everyone else with us on this wild and fantastic ride to our best--are my heroes.
Of course, this movement--one designed to remind people of their natural greatness and interior genius-- has its cynics. Some dismiss what we're doing as superficial. Others as irrelevant. A few as unpractical.
Let them judge. And may we--together--take the rocks critics throw at us and arrange them into monuments of heroism, audacity, courage and kindness.
And so I offer you 10 wishes that I hold quietly for the new world we are building. Study them. Deconstruct them. Share them. And live them.
#1. I wish for a world where everyone understands that discomfort is the price of legendary. And fear is just growth coming to get you.
#2. I wish for a world where people understand that life is short. So today's the time to do big things.
#3. I wish for a world where success is measured not by what we take nor by what we get. Just by what we give. And who we become.
#4. I wish for a world that gets that your "I Can" is exponentially more important than your IQ.
#5. I wish for a world that understands that leadership is less about a title and the size of your position. And so much more about your mindset. And one's devotion to work like Picasso painted.
#6. I wish for a world with less ego, more humility. Less being busy, more productivity. Less entertainment, more education. Less selfies, more selfless. [There, I said it!].
#7. I wish for a world that sees each day as a life in miniature. And every moment as a platform for personal heroism.
#8. I wish for a world where every single citizen has no idea how to quit. Just factory installed relentlessness.
#9. I wish for a world that has learned that we grow fearless by walking into our fears.
#10. I wish for a world of victors versus victims, encouragers versus deniers and dreamers versus destroyers. Because how high you fly is derived from how big you think. And how iconic you become is caused by how deeply you love.
Do one brave or kind act of humanity for someone in need today.
Love + respect,
Robin Sharma"
