Chapters
You know, there's something really powerful about the word repent, at least in my worldview. You know, what it means to me is that I get an opportunity to ask for forgiveness for things that I've done that maybe not so proud of.
Or things I feel are a mistake.
That I shouldn't have.
I shouldn't have made certain decisions or.
Choices in my life. But the cool thing is that if.
You are a different person and you.
Can repent and you can kind of clear the air, leave the baggage behind, you're actually a different person.
You're not the same person that you were. And you really just have to kind.
Of, like, let that in and think about that. If you take responsibility for things in.
Your life and you make changes and.
You become a different person, you transform, well, then, you know, think about it. You're not that same person that you were when you were 18, when you were 20.
Some people are, and they don't take.
Responsibility and they don't change. But people on their builder's journey, and if you look at all the different.
Transformations that occur in our community, people are different people. They literally turn and transform themselves by design, on purpose, into someone that they're trying to become. This is why Becoming Built to Lead.
Is the title of the playbook.
And you don't have to feel the shame.
You don't have to have regret, because you're not that person anymore.
And if you can come clean with yourself, come clean with people in your.
Life, come clean with a higher power.
If you feel that you need to, then, you know, it's hard to be held accountable for something that you're not anymore. So you're never off the hook, at least in my worldview. But you can come clean and you can repair and you can repent and.
You can be a different person.
And I think no matter who you feel holds you accountable, I think anyone would look at that and think, that's someone who's becoming whole. That's someone who's finding the oneness in their life. And that's a word of the aim.
