BUSINESS
I got over the fear of rejection early as I processed
the realities of divorce. I learned to lean in to vulner-
ability when I was afraid because leaning out left me
detached from even the good feelings such as joy, love,
and fulfillment. And I realized the value of living in
the moment as I became an observer of life as opposed
to being the conductor of it. There is magic in silence.
So when anyone tells you your goals are impossible,
I suggest that you ask them what they would do if
they knew they could not fail. If they can’t answer,
you’ll know where they’ll be in three years. The bigger
question is where do you want to be in three years? n
