When did you start listening to the voice inside that said you aren’t good enough? I recently spoke to a group of brilliant middle school students about developing unwavering resilience. Mid-way through the program, a sixth-grade student bravely raised his hand and said: “But Mettie, I have no value, no purpose.”

Regardless of age, we all have an inner critic that at one time or another has said, “You are going to fail, so don’t even try”. Too often we trade our dreams for a comfort zone, our potential for security, and individuality for mediocrity.  If you spend your days shackled by self-doubt, past failures, and fear, I HIGHLY ENCOURAGE you to take the 100-day challenge described in Og Mandino’s bestselling classic, The Greatest Miracle in the World. I promise you, you will never see yourself or the world the same.

Now I know what you are thinking, Mettie, just tell me the lessons and the gist of the challenges. If I did,
I would be robbing you of countless AHA moments. So spend some time with this short and empowering book and share your thoughts and epiphanies with us on Facebook, LinkedIn or Instagram.

Sending strength and hope,
