Summary
've been emailed and told many times that I am talented at what I do, but as much as I love receiving emails like that, I have to be honest in that I am not 'naturally' talented at my job. In fact, I can only recall one thing that I have been talented in, that I did feel natural in doing, which is drawing. However, creating videos and audios, writing and getting a book published, and helping over 200,000 people per month has been hard. You see, I was a drop-out at school and I was so shy, that talking to five or more people would petrify me.
So what do you do when you want something, but do not feel you have what it takes to rise to the top or achieve goals?

| 0:00.0 | Hi there, so what I'm going to do is talk to you about talent and ability. |
| 0:07.2 | There's a big misconception that we have to be talented to achieve maybe a goal or a dream |

| 0:32.6 | You can still achieve your outcome, your dream, no matter what it is. |
| 0:39.1 | You see, when I first started out doing what I do, I was, first of all, very unconfident |
| 0:45.0 | as a therapist. |
| 0:46.0 | I'd never worked with anyone before. |
| 0:48.2 | Then when it came to doing my podcast, I've never actually done podcasts or audio before, |
| 0:52.8 | I was tripping up all over the place. |
| 0:55.0 | In fact, I still do. |
| 0:56.0 | When it comes to videos, same thing happened. |
| 0:59.0 | Maybe if you look back in my earliest videos, you'll notice there's probably a bit of difference |
| 1:04.0 | because I've had to learn to get better about communicating on video or audio with my clients. |
| 1:10.0 | Same thing when I first did my public speaking. |
| 1:13.6 | The first experience, not so good. |
| 1:15.6 | But my idea in my mind each time has been that I'm going to get better. |
| 1:21.6 | You see, don't judge ourselves by our present ability. |
| 1:26.6 | Judge ourselves by what's about to happen. |
