You are the only person holding you back

You are the only person holding you back

Good afternoon, ,


One of my favorite questions to ask people is, "What's holding you back?"


If you want to go on vacations. Travel the world. Write a book. Get a better job. Anything. Something is holding you back.


I hear a lot of different answers. Things like "Golden handcuffs." "The economy." Stuff like that.


The truth?


The answer is YOU.


YOU are what's holding you back. How do I know? Because *I* am the one holding me back. We are always the answer to that question.


So, what's next? How do we NOT hold ourseslves back?


Well, it starts with acknowledging the truth. Then, doing something different.


What's something different you can do that will move you towards your next goal?
