What's one insecurity you've decided you're no longer going to let control your life?

[LawrenceDbrand @LawrenceDbrand]

I used to think overcoming shame meant fixing everything I didn't like about myself.
Then I learned: improve what you can, accept what you can't, stop giving shame your power, and build evidence that you're capable.
I'm still becoming.

Which one is hardest for you: seeking validation, overthinking, insecurity, or caring what people think?

[LawrenceDbrand @LawrenceDbrand]

A lot of insecurity comes from giving other people's opinions more power than they deserve.
I had to learn to look inward, filter who I listen to, stop assuming, focus on my strengths, and become comfortable with myself.
These 5 lessons changed how I move.

At what point in your life did you realize that you were caring too much about what other people thought?

[LawrenceDbrand @LawrenceDbrand]

What changed for you when you stopped trying to impress everyone?

Be honest what's the harshest realization you had to accept about adulthood?

[LawrenceDbrand @LawrenceDbrand]

One of the hardest lessons I've learned:

Some of the things you're blaming are real.

But they may not be the reason you're stuck.

The day I stopped focusing on what I couldn't control and started focusing on what I could control was the day things began to change.

What's one area of your life where taking responsibility changed everything?

[LawrenceDbrand @LawrenceDbrand]

What skill do you think will be most valuable in the next 5 years?

[LawrenceDbrand @LawrenceDbrand]

Everyone is worried about AI replacing them.
I think the bigger risk is staying the same while the world evolves.

The competition isn't between you and AI.
It's between who you're becoming and who you're choosing to remain.

[LawrenceDbrand @LawrenceDbrand]

For me: AI implementation, communication and public speaking.

Still a long way to go, but learning daily.

[LawrenceDbrand @LawrenceDbrand]

Mine was blaming circumstances instead of improving my consistency.

What's yours?

[LawrenceDbrand @LawrenceDbrand]

For years I thought my circumstances were holding me back.
Then I realized something uncomfortable:
I was my own biggest obstacle.
Taking responsibility changed everything.

What's one thing you've been postponing that you know you need to start?

[LawrenceDbrand @LawrenceDbrand]

One of the hardest lessons I had to learn:

Nobody was coming to save me.
No opportunity
No mentor
No perfect timing
The moment I stopped waiting and started taking responsibility for my future, everything changed.

What leadership lesson changed your life?

Very few want responsibility.

Most people want the title.
Few want the burden.
