Where do you get scored

But be careful where and how you look for validation.
Achieving something impressive(to strangers) may require 10x effort to earn similar recognition from friends and family,
There’s a level of familiarity your friends and family have, a “see-finish”
It clouds their judgement of your true potential.
Hear what they said of Jesus when they heard him teach with wisdom
…Coming to his hometown, he began teaching the people in their synagogue, and they were amazed.
“Where did this man get this wisdom and these miraculous powers?”
they asked.
Isn’t this the carpenter’s son?
Isn’t his mother’s name Mary, and aren’t his brothers James, Joseph, Simon and Judas?
Aren’t all his sisters with us?
Where then did this man get all these things?”
The same video you are scared of recording for fear of negative feedbacks from friends and families, don’t be surprised they are the same set of people that will never bother to watch it.
Be wary of relying too much on covert validation from those close to you.
‭‭But Jesus said to them,
“A prophet is not without honor except in his own town and in his own home.”
– Pope

WHOSE HANDS?

A basketball in my hands is worth about $19. A basketball in Michael Jordan's hands is worth about $33 million. It depends whose hands it's in. A baseball in my hands is worth about $6. A baseball in Mark McGwire's hands is worth about $19 million. It depends whose...

Knowing

Sometimes, the hardest thing in life is to know which bridge to cross and which to burn. - Pope
