The Worst Betrayal
Filed Under Life
I love quotes. I love lyrics.
Here’s one for ya:
“…the worst betrayal is that commited against yourself by ignoring the abilities you possess.”
- Liv Arnesen in No Horizon is So Far by Liv Arnesen and Ann Bancroft
We all have gifts, talents, abilities…Whatever you want to label it, we all have something that no one else has. Yet too often we are unsure of our gifts, we question our talents and we second guess our abilities. So instead of cultivating them, stepping out and attempting to be brilliant, we shove them aside and settle for mediocre or “good”. Why? Because of fear or self doubt? Why do we let these two dictate our lives and hold us back from taking the initiative to hone our skills to make them better…perhaps make them great or excellent or…?
We should not ignore the abilities we possess. Insteand we should listen to them and cultivate them and allow them to flourish.
