Being here is all the permission you need
My alterego, who is a very rich successful famous white man telling me to step the hell up. I should probably pay some attention.

Secretly you may know yourself to be a bum….
The person who searches entire buildings for a phone that’s in the back pocket of their jeans. The person who has a degree in hand but doesn’t know what to do with it. The person who has an idea but doesn’t know if its good enough to be announced. The person who believes they are undeserving of opportunity and success, and the right to make their own way.
And so you believe you need to wait for someone’s permission….
Permission that might come in the form of validation or
actual permission itself- to do things; to start change; to be successful.
Yeah.. Stuff that! Life goes by too fast for that kind of waiting.
If you’re here, if you see a challenge and you have got most (if not all) of the skillsets to serve it, then take the initiative and do it anyway.

My alterego, who is a very rich successful famous white man is basically asking me to take his job. I’ll take it.
