Yo, today's QODS, it is so much easier to beg for forgiveness than it is to ask for permission.

Here we go.

Welcome back to the quote of the day show.

I'm your host, Sean Crox and it's Sean Crox and dot com.

We got Carla Harris back on the show.

And do you ever wish like knowing what you know now that you can go back in time and share this knowledge, this wisdom, this advice with a younger version of yourself, like the 18 year old, the 21 year old, the 25 year old,

and if you could, what would you say?

And so Carla Harris is going to do that today.

She's going to share a letter that she would write to her 25 year old self.

Carla Harris is coming up.

Well, letter to my 25 year old self.

The first thing that I would tell my 25 year old self is girl on your power.

Don't ever let anyone take your power away or make you feel that you can't have an impact in the world just because they said so.

The second thing that I would tell my 25 year old self is be willing to take risks.

Be fearless because fear has no place in your success equation.

Anytime you approach anything in your life from a position of fear, you will always underpinitry that opportunity.

Be careful because fear is sneaky.

It comes from all kinds of places.

It can come from your parents.

It can come from your friends.

But make sure that you don't let it impede your forward motion because there are two things that hold most women back.

Fear and fatigue.
