i hope,

you learn to stop minimizing your magic to make people feel more comfortable. i hope you drop the habit of dimming light on your talents in the name of humility. i hope you surround yourself in spaces that want you to ascend and you become that space for yourself too.

High performers are impatient people by nature - it fuels a sense of urgency & push. They want results yesterday.

But that impatience in the short term fuels results that create long-term goals.

You'll never meet someone more prone to frustration than a high performing person.

God is always showing me that anything can happen, and nothing is out of reach. That all things can be made new, and change at the favor of his choosing. It’s so magical.

That’s a wrap on #AWNewYork! Shoutout to @BukkyOjeifo for an awesome fireside chat on #TwitterVoices: “We sought to build relationships with historically marginalized communities. It’s our responsibility to make sure we recognize and amplify their contributions to the platform”

[Dr. Julie Gurner @drgurner]

We talk a lot about how environment shapes us, but so do achievements.

The more you see yourself win or accomplish, the more you believe you're capable of. It's a flywheel.

The reverse is also true, with stagnation.
Be careful the cycles you're building into your life.

I had a convo w an 12 year old who said she doesn’t like ARTISTS, she only likes specific SONGS. While this is anecdotal, and maybe she’ll change her mind, I think it’s important to consider how tiktok disembodies songs. songs (not artists) are gaining followings. Content>creator

My 10yo has been practicing Korean on Duolingo all weekend and I didn’t know why. Today I found out it’s because there’s a new kid in her class who only speaks Korean and she wants to make him feel at home. 🥺

Stop ignoring when your talent has been validated in multiple spaces. It’s not a gimmick, it’s not luck, it’s not a once in a lifetime occurrence. You are GOOD at this thing. The proof is there. Accept it and act accordingly.
