Write down everything you do, then throw it away. The exercise forces you to separate your identity from your job titles and hobbies, and answer who you actually are instead of what you do. Real connection comes from your character, not your résumé.
Good morning, everyone. Here is your moment of yes for today. Happy Friday. Go Tigers. So your moment of yes for today is in sort of the spirit of just a quick little assignment. If you were to take out a piece of paper and write down all of the things that you do. So if someone asks you, hey, what do you do? You could write down a list of here's the hobbies that I do, here's my job, And all of these things that you do, a nice healthy list. Now take that list, crumple it up, throw it away. Now ask yourself, who am I? Who are you? Who are you without the things that you do? How would you, how would you clarify, how would you articulate and describe the you-ness, the beingness of who you are without having to justify or describe it? By what you do, by the things that you do. So instead of being a, again, a human doing, you are a human being. So describe and think about and articulate your beingness. Our society puts so much pressure on what you do, yet it's not what people do that draws us to them. It's who they are. It's how they show up. It's their The qualities they express that make them so appealing and make them so inviting to us. And I can think of a few people right now that I could care less what they do. It's who they are and it's the qualities that they express that make me gravitate toward them. Hopefully you know who you are. So that's your moment of yes for today. Make a list of all the things you do and throw it away. Then think about who are you without that list of things. That's probably closer to who you really are. So the next time someone asks you, what do you do? Just say, this is what I be. But maybe don't say it like that. Yeah. That's your moment of yes for today, everyone. Have a great day.
