Defining Moments
How I responded to discouragement
THE NOISE
Messages from Myself:
I don't know if I'm up for that job.
How I responded:
Believe in yourself! I hope you continue to amaze yourself with how much you can accomplish and learn. I always say one of the coolest and hardest parts of my current job is that there is so much to learn. But if you're not learning, what are you doing? Be your own hero and life will open up so many great opportunities for you. Also, don't be afraid to ask questions! You'll do great things!!
