“Force was only going to take me so far”

I was on a walk with a friend the other day and he asked me what I know now being in network marketing for almost 8 years that I didn’t in the beginning and as I’ve thought about it, this is what came to mind...

Force was only going to take me so far. I could push and grind and hustle but what I eventually started to understand is force is born out of insecurity and a need to prove. It sounds like arrogance and it feels like condescension. It’s an unsustainable sugar rush because the fuel source is toxic.

And the gift in it has been the awareness and the opportunity to choose differently. What I’ve been relentless in focusing on is working through the insecurity instead of just trying to put a cover on it. To me, authentic power comes from peace. It sounds like trust and it feels like grace. It can’t be faked and it’s not manufactured but when you experience it, it can’t be denied.
