One of the most important things I ever learned…and it took a while.
It’s easy to see a person become very successful and become impressed by them and want to model them and in turn impress them. In the end it really means nothing (to either person).
Oddly enough, when we finally muster up the courage to impress ourselves, it becomes obvious that it’s the only kind of impressing that means anything.
The Real Deal. I changed my whole outlook by just being me and I am now on verge of something big by just being me ”warts n all” as Oliver Cromwell once said.

Awesome short post James.
Right on
Everyone I’ve met who has been an influence in my life has been through being “anti-impressive” aka….. just being myself and being a “real” person.
Being real is also very freeing!
