This is a great message. How many times have you lost the zeal to do something, start a project, register that business, all because you didn't get "permission" from someone else? They didn't return your call, didn't respond to your mail, didn't agree to meet up for coffee, didn't have time to review your proposal, etc.
So, we simply give up on ourselves and our dreams because someone else didn't say "yes, you're good enough and you may proceed."
There's a difference between getting validation and seeking permission. Awards, commendations, Fellowships, and all the other great opportunities that comes our way simply "validate" who we already are. We first of all gave ourselves "permission" to be who we are, before we could even get those opportunities in the first place. The opportunities I've been so graciously blessed only validate who I am and who I'm growing to be. The permission to be that person came from me, in the place of quietness and in the place of preparation. Thanks for sharing
