Have you been telling yourself that you are “no good” at something?

𝘐 𝘢𝘮 “𝘯𝘰 𝘨𝘰𝘰𝘥” 𝘢𝘵 𝘺𝘰𝘨𝘢. 𝘐 𝘢𝘮 𝘵𝘰𝘰 𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘧𝘧. 𝘐 𝘢𝘮 “𝘯𝘰 𝘨𝘰𝘰𝘥” 𝘢𝘵 𝘵𝘦𝘢𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨. 𝘐 𝘥𝘰𝘯’𝘵 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘦𝘹𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦.

I get it. 😊

I used to tell myself: I am “no good” in tech.

I don’t know how to start shifting my yoga class online or learning to use organization software.

Sure, you might not be any good at it… YET.

But just because you are not good at something right now, doesn’t mean you can’t get good at it. Think about all the challenging and difficult things that you have overcome in your lifetime. 💪

They all came from you getting started and learning them, and now it’s easy. You just forgot to learn them!

When you tell yourself “I am no good” at something, you are already defining you are the person that cannot do the thing.

When you give yourself the identity that you cannot do the thing, you GIVE UP before you even started.

You won’t get better. You won’t learn.

But when you add the power of yet at the end: “I am no good…. yet”

𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗞𝗡𝗢𝗪 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝗯𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘁. 🏆

And when you think like that, you are even more forgiving to yourself when you stumble along the way.

This is because you know you are learning, and you are NOT SUPPOSED to be already so good at something in the beginning.

You are also more open to experimenting, trying, and exploring.

I am still no good at tech… yet.

And I am still no good at the organization… yet.

But I know I am getting better at it, by 𝘁𝗮𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝗺𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗽𝘀 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗱𝗮𝘆.

𝗢𝗻𝗲 𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝗮𝘁 𝗮 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲. 🙌

What is one thing that you can rephrase from I am NO GOOD to I am NO GOOD YET that would give you the motivation to kick start?

Re-define your identity.

I might be no good YET, but I will take the courage so I can continue to learn and grow.

This is our practice. 🙏
