It Takes a Brave Person to Be Open

When you speak your truth (even if your voice shakes), you not only empower yourself but also inspire others to do the same. The job of a leader is to walk into what’s uncomfortable, not away from it. Fear is simply freedom waiting for you to embrace it. My latest book “The Wealth Money Can’t Buy” is full of fresh ideas and original tools that I’m absolutely certain will cause quantum leaps in your positivity, productivity, wellness, and happiness.

  The more you actually practice speaking up when you know you want to speak up, the more you will actually step into your next level of power. And the more you actually betray yourself by not speaking up when maybe someone in a restaurant is serving you and they're not being polite, or maybe a client is being disrespectful, or maybe someone on the street is doing something that is dishonoring your humanity. Every single time you swallow what you most need to say, you actually lose power. You actually become more and more impotent as a leader, as a producer, and as a human being. I mean, because you know this, we give away our power to the things that we avoid.

  The hard talks, when you actually speak up, are when you grow in power. And you actually, not only grow in power, you build intimacy in the relationship. I mean, just think about it. When you actually speak up with someone and you tell them how you're feeling, and you tell them what's most important to you, well, if it's the right relationship, one that's meant to be in your life, whether it's professional or personal, that is really a gateway into the other person having the permission to open up as well. And then you have two mature people talking about what's really most important versus sidestepping the truth.
