What's Staring Back At Me In The Mirror?

To catch a few of you up and answer questions I've received from emails. I am not changing jobs. I'm not moving out of Las Vegas. I'm not going through mid-life crisis. I am still teaching diversity and leadership for MGM MIRAGE, Nevada's largest employer.

I started a workshop last night that will continue on this entire weekend. It's focus is on personal effectiveness and leadership. It's almost like life boot camp. It's about taking a deep look into myself and seeing what's there. What do I need to change, what is or isn't working for me in life. It's about tapping into my unlimited abilities. I am my greatest barrier to success and it's about reaching and achieving new heights in my life in all arenas.

What do I see when I look in the mirror, do I like what I see? How's that working for me?

I've determined it's better to be hated for who you are than loved for who you're not.

I will share what I see in the mirror is not what's pictured here. I have lived through other people's expectations, values, belief systems and it's time to stop the cycle.

"No man for any considerable period can wear one face to himself, and another to the multitude without finally getting bewildered as to which may be true." - Nathaniel Hawthorne

I have lived from the context that I am not "good" enough, I'm not worthy of someones love. I have lived for the approval of others. I have lied to those closest to me in fear I would loose their love.
