There are days when I feel down, I question my abilities and I can pin point many reasons why or who is responsible for this state of mind. I tell myself I am human. I take time to introspect (looking inwards) and make a self-assessment. Being able to analyse yourself are very important tools that will help you improve only if you allow your thoughts to move in that positive direction. If you wallow in self-pity and start doubting your actions or the results of your actions, you are leaving yourself vulnerable to low self-esteem.
Leadership, whether it is in SFI or anywhere else in a nutshell is being able to set aside the negative feelings and draw yourself out of that state of mind. If you feel you are worth nothing, others will definitely believe so and this is the first step you need to address. We are all individuals who possess unique qualities and characteristics that make us special in each and every way and this is a fact. Believe in yourself and your abilities and move out of that negative path.
Look at your progress, assess it through your hard work, your self-drive, your ability to understand the needs of others, your support for your team and enjoy what you do. With all these traits at your disposal, your self worth is more than what you can imagine. Avoid negativity of all forms and keep away from people who bring you or your business down. Do not let what others say affect your goals or objectives and do not anticipate the worse!
We all face numerous challenges in life but that does not mean that we have failed or we do not have the ability to perform. And, even if you fail once, let that not distract you from your focus-who does not fail before they succeed.........
As for experience, this comes with time not only for yourself but for everyone who set foot on the SFI platform. Even Gery Carson started as a young man in a marketing role when he had no experience-he started somewhere and has built SFI through 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, 10 years & it has now mounted to 30 years of experience-it comes with handling a business/passion over time. Once you start, that is experience!
