Hi my name is Louis Howes and welcome to the Daily Motivation Show.

Howl or does someone prepare themselves for success to keep their self-confidence and

expand it not dim their light?

Honestly, the thing that ultimately worked for me is to just kind of maintain that bottom of

the mountain mindset you know there's like a famous cliche about you know there's you

get to the top of the mountain you realize there's a taller mountain behind it you know and so it's like figuring out what that taller mountain is right and like and a lot of times you have you just invent it like you just pick something out of their area you're like know what, like I'll make this my mountain, right?

Because there's a certain amount of freedom and maneuverability that comes with seeing yourself as a beginner.

Seeing yourself as somebody who doesn't have anything to lose or doesn't have all the answers.

And for me, it's been psychologically very, very beneficial to find a way to keep that and not put all of my identity and self-worth into that because if I did that then I'd be terrified to get out of bed in the morning.

So when you were saying that for those just listening you're pointing at the book,

putting your self-worth and identity into the success of the book.

Yes.

Right.

What should we put our identity and self-worth into if it's not into our accomplishments, our career, or our wealth.

I personally believe that you should treat your identity or your self-worth the same way you treat a good

investment portfolio which is you diversify it across a lot of things that are not

correlated to one another. The same way you know you want to split up your

money between stocks and bonds and cash and real estate because those things

don't always move in the same direction at the same time you want to put your

self-esteem and things that that aren't going

to go north or south at the same time. That's interesting, yeah. Yeah.

Like for someone listening or watching what does that look why kind of day-to-day life?
