Kara Lawson shares a message every competitor needs to hear.
"Don't give me the power to affect your self-esteem, who you are as a person, and how good a practice you can have. Don't ever give someone externally the power to touch you in that way."
Your mindset is yours. Protect it.
"If you give someone externally the power to impact how good a day you're gonna have, what type of attitude you're gonna have, how hard you're gonna work - you're ceding something that's really, really valuable in life."
"You control that. Don't give me that power. Don't let me control whether you're gonna have a good day or not, or whether you feel good about yourself."
You choose how you want to show up.
"No one gets to own you. I don't get to own you. Nobody does. Nobody should."
"Don't give anyone that power. That's important."
Take ownership of yourself, your attitude, your effort, and your confidence.
They all belong to you.
