When we make a promise to someone else, we are more likely to keep it.
But what about promises that we make to ourselves?
The easiest person to take for granted is your own self. We have a tendency to put our plans on a backseat the moment someone else out there starts expecting us to do something. We have been taught that it is selfish to prioritize ourselves. It’s not.
That needs to change, IF you want to chart your own unique path.
Because constantly working on expectations of others makes you mediocre. It’s important to serve others and while you are doing it, be selfless.
Greatness comes from working on YOUR own priorities. When you work on your own priorities (whether it’s your health, well being, projects, career etc), be selfish. That’s when you can bring your real self into the game.
That’s when you differentiate.
That’s how you thrive.
P.S: This is as much a note to the self as much as a note to you.
