You’re dying to be seen.

To be heard.

To be given a chance.

You know you have potential, but no one sees it.

They see your failures.

Your lack of confidence.

Your insecurities.

It’s a compounding effect.

The more rejection you accrue, the more confirmation you have that your limiting beliefs are correct.

They become your truth.

Invisible shackles you put on yourself.

See, your internal narrative matters.

It isn’t always rational.

And it isn’t always right.

Change the story you tell yourself, increase the chances of changing your outcomes.

You aren’t a failure, you had the courage to chase your dreams and it hasn’t paid off yet.

You aren’t alone, you’re selective about who you spend time with.

You aren’t stupid, you’re aware of your limitations.

Framing matters.

But that’s just the beginning.

If you want to be seen, do something that matters for people who care.

Don’t shout the loudest.

Just do the work.

Show them why they should see you.

Show them why they’re wrong.

Be seen for who you are with your ‘self’ fully expressed.

Not for the shadow of yourself you currently are.

Have courage to cut away the deadwood.

All it’s doing is holding you back.

Our Maiōrēs watch on.
