What if there was a sign that just appeared over your head on any given day you didn't know when it was going to pop up but it's like this

neon like hologram style sign and what it says as it floats around above your

head is the truth about you.

It boils down who you are and what you do, your competencies, whatever, to the most basic

defining level of your essence and it just broadcasts it in

bright lights to everybody and maybe you don't know exactly when it's gonna crop

up there but at some point it's gonna crop crop up there. Would you walk around all day, feeling

like I cannot wait for that sign to pop up? It's going to be so flattering when the all-seeing

eye looks deep into my soul and determines what I truly am,

and then puts that succinctly on a sign that floats around above my head.

Everybody's going to love it and they're finally going to see me for the genius I am and for the high character, high value person I am and they're going to be sorry they underestimated me.

Or would you walk around with a sense of dread that when that thing popped up over your head, you would

be absolutely laid bare and humiliated in front of everyone.

Would you live in fear of the day your sign pops up because finally

you're going to be exposed for what you are and all of the things that you're

insecure about and that you worry about and that you feel like you kind of have to put on a brave face and a good show to impress people with that all of that stuff is finally going to be just put out there and people will finally see you for who you really are.

Well, I think there are some people who would respond to this exercise being like,

hmm, that's interesting.

I just genuinely don't care.

I'm very comfortable in my own skin.

I'm trying to get things right, I am what I am.

Awesome.
