Kobe Bryant said that the thing that gave him the most confidence in the world was his Dad telling him that whether he scored 60 points or 0 he would love him no matter what.
Kobe said that gave him all the confidence in the world to fail.
He then goes on to say,
"the hell with that I'm scoring 60."
I love that.
It's the same in life and business.
Knowing that God the father loves us regardless.
Deeply knowing and experiencing this love gives us a security that can't be obtained anywhere else. Not that we can sit around and be lazy.
But so we can have a confidence that allows us to take risks in life knowing that if it doesn't work out it won't be the end.
Life and business isn't walking a tight rope.
One wrong move and you are screwed.
It's an adventure and yea lots of uncertainty but when we embrace the unknown business becomes more fun an exciting.
Less of a survival mechanism and more of a game.
