These Two Words Is All It Can Take …

You know what two words I love? 

I am.

I am are the two words you can use when you have a little bit of skill or you’re starting down a new path. So if you’re someone who’s gonna learn to lift weights, you just tell yourself, I am a bodybuilder, and transform yourself into a bodybuilder. You’re the kind of person who’s gonna learn how to play piano. Then take that first lesson and say, hey, I’m a piano player. I’m just getting started, but I am one.

Whenever you start on the new adventure, try using the words I am. I am this person with just very little skill, and it will get better. I am a pilot. I am a runner. I am an athlete. Those two words I am can be very empowering.

So give that a shot today.

Swing your feet out of the bed, put them by the ground, say, I am a badass, and then take the steps you need to become that badass today.
