We are often brought up not to be big-headed. I often get clients to 'boast' about how great they are. They can't do it! They list facts, but it feels like boasting. One thing I have had to learn is that claiming our gifts isn't about being better than someone else.

"The more space we take up in the world, the more we give others permission to do the same." Jacob Collier.

My coach shared this poem with me. It really spoke to me. I want to share it with you so you can know you have gifts for the world. The more you share them, the more flow comes to you and the more you feel alive to life.

Cargo by Greg Kimura

You enter life a ship laden with meaning, purpose and gifts sent to be delivered to a hungry world. And as much as the world needs your cargo, you need to give it away. Everything depends on this.

But the world forgets its needs, and you forget your mission, and the ancestral maps used to guide you have become faded scrawls on the parchment of dead Pharaohs.

The cargo weighs you heavy the longer it is held and spoilage becomes a risk. The ship sputters from port to port and at each you ask: "Is this the way?"

But the way cannot be found without knowing the cargo, and the cargo cannot be known without recognizing there is a way, and it is simply this: You have gifts. The world needs your gifts. You must deliver them.

The world may not know it is starving, but the hungry know, and they will find you when you discover your cargo and start to give it away.
