EP42: Appreciating Support and Paying It Forward
Who in your life makes you feel fully supported? Recently, I\u2019m very grateful towards the relationships and connections that help me thrive in my journey. Each time I share my Heart Value through an episode or project, there\u2019s a team of people who assist me in giving the best value to you. I\u2019m amazed that I can freely pursue my dreams with people who genuinely care to support me in what I do.
Accepting help from people who sincerely care doesn\u2019t need to feel awkward. I find that slowing myself down to figure out where help could be more useful moves me further in my journey. Everyone needs help. Even if you are a person that prefers to not work in a team, you should recognize when you will need assistance. Then, make the choice to accept help.
All of this became more clear to me after hanging out with my college friend Katie. The two of us have different dreams and goals, but we show strong support for one another. We balance each other. Support systems give people a chance to offer their unique gifts. There\u2019s a certain balance in sharing Heart Value where we both can light up, so we end up giving and receiving.
Walking in our True Stride with help from a support system connects to what we are saying \u201cyes\u201d to and what we are saying \u201cno\u201d to in everyday life. Discover what choices you can make to say \u201cyes\u201d to fully use and feel the help from your support system. When you do receive help, find ways to show gratitude, and pay it forward to someone else. Sharing will be natural, since you have more to give others when you are taken care of. What choices and actions are you making to move closer to what you\u2019re dreaming of?
