Love your mojo

“Why overvalue what you’re not, and undervalue who you are?”

Play to your strengths, to your talents, to what stirs your soul.  It’s easy to get distracted, to start focusing on  – propping up – where you’re weak, rather than perfecting where you’re strong.

It’s more than a distraction, it’s an avoidance of where you should be going;  a hesitation, a delay, a sidetrack on your journey.  It’s caused by fear; fear of failure, fear of incredible success.   So you hedge your bets, get good at lots of things yet fail to excel with your strengths, your passions.

And while it’s good to develop complementary interests and skills, to explore new capacities and capabilities,  it’s not so great to do it at the expense of your mojo.

Love your mojo, that inner magic sauce that separates you from the pack.  Perfect it.  Value who you are, rather than patch up what you’re not.
