My name is Jessica, and this is The People Behind C3.
We’re going to break it down into like three things. Like A, don’t limit yourself. And this applies to your capacity to grow, not like your time management. You absolutely have to learn time management or you’re going to burn out soon and you’re going to burn out often.
And B, you’re going to learn how to separate crippling doubt from reality. There’s always that devil on your shoulder who says, like, oh, you know, like, I can’t do this, or should I be here or that sort of thing? And you really need to separate that, from the reality saying, I might not be where I want to be today.
But I’m going to be there tomorrow, right? I don’t care how long it takes. Like I am going to be where I want to be. And C, don’t worry about people who are going to go out of their way to say no to you or to really, be disparaging, in a room and make you feel small when you’re in a room with them.
Because at the end of the day, if you are able to really utilize A and B, you’re going to leave that room and they’re still going to be in it, and that’s just what’s going to happen, right? So like don’t don’t pay any mind to that nonsense. Just keep going.
