I held on to an old story/belief for as long as I could remember – “I’m not good at sales.”
And I applied this in all areas of my life:
- I can’t do / don’t wanna do sales jobs
- I don’t do well in job interviews because I hate having to sell myself
- I feel like I’m begging people when I need to sell
- sometimes dating feels like job interviews. I wish I could just skip the part of trying to “find someone” and jump straight into the relationship I want
So on and so forth.
Until one day when I was sharing with a stranger my passion and actively promoting it, I suddenly realized that I had no problem promoting (selling) people/products/services/places I love and truly believe in, and in fact, I actually enjoyed it, because I wanted to share my joy with others!
That was when it hit me what the problem was with my old narrative – I never truly believed in myself!
I wasn’t in love with my whole self. I wasn’t passionate about being myself. And with that awareness, I started to change… slowly but surely.
Remember, you are your best brand ambassador! Do you believe in your true self?
