Be the Best You

,

There is one thing in the world you can do better than anybody else. Something that no matter how hard anyone tries, they won’t succeed. You don’t even have to practice, but you’re still the best. So what is it? Being YOU.

Being a first rate version of yourself is better than a second rate version of someone else. Honing in on the best version of you is the best gift to give yourself and others. Something to remember about being your best is that it isn’t synonymous with knowing the most or being the best at particular tasks. It is simply being YOU!

Make a list of the things you think you’re good at doing and take pride in them. Don’t underestimate the importance of what you do well. You may think some things on your list are common or easy … but others may see these skills as unique and enviable. Offer to help or mentor others using these skills and ask them to mentor or train you on their special and wonderful attributes. Sharing is caring, and we all want to feel cared for.

By doing this, you will not only maintain your exceptional abilities but will learn new ones as well. Thus, being not only you but also an even better you!
