Discovering that you don't suck

from Building Something Better Hosted by Amy Jones

For as long as I can remember, I've had this voice in my head that's been awfully convincing. It's done everything it can to persuade me that I'm not good enough as I am, that people don't care about what I create, and that I'm delusional if I think I can contribute something meaningful. Clearly, that voice is an asshole. And we've all got one. I call it our Clever Brain. I suppose scientists call it the amygdala. Same, same. If we don't understand how this sucker works, the consequences are devastating. If we listen to that voice prattle on about how we're not enough and we believe it, nobody wins. If we don't see it for what it is and choose to make something anyway, we cannot come fully alive and give what we're meant to give. I know this, as a coach. I walk it, as an entrepreneur. This chat today is about how I do that—taking you behind-the-scenes and into my head/heart for the human part of creating technology. Request an invite for the app: recollectbetter.com
