There Is Room For All Of Us

There Is Room For All Of Us

In a world where success is often measured in minutes and immediate results, it's important to remember that there are no 'magic minutes' in the pursuit of our dreams. This message resonates deeply with me, and I hope it does with you too.

As we hustle, hitting the pavement, and knocking on doors in search of our next career move, we must recall the wise words of Tyler Perry: "If they don’t offer you a seat at the table, build your own table." This statement isn't just about defiance; it's a powerful reminder of self-worth and determination.

Understanding and acknowledging your value is a journey, not a destination. It's crucial to recognize that not everyone will see your worth. That's why it's vital to know your value internally, instinctively, humbly, yet boldly. This isn't about leading with ego. Rather, it's about not letting others' opinions shape your self-perception.

When asked about a 'dream job,' I often say, "I don’t dream about a job; I dream about a life filled with purpose." This isn't just a statement; it's a philosophy. My drive stems from seeing those around me grow and succeed, fostered by the interactions and mentoring I provide. There's an unparalleled joy in being told "it can’t be done," and then doing it successfully.

Work is necessary, but it's not the dream. The dreams that fill my heart are those of family, comfort, love, respect, and ultimately, achieving passive income. This dream isn't about financial gain alone, but about creating a life where our work serves us, not the other way around.

So, as you navigate your path, remember to value yourself, pursue your unique dreams, and never be afraid to build your own table. Your journey is not just about reaching a destination; it's about creating a life rich in purpose and meaning.

Confirming - Intrinsic value comes at the intersection of skill/abilities, personal value, filling a need and what can provide income. "Build Your Own Table" is a great reminder that the individual gets to decide.

Thanks Bill. The dream is about the state of being that the job or the money "gets" us.
