Today I wanted to share something that I got from
my mentors this morning.
They've been at the SFM momentum day in Australia and also at the Platinum branding workshops which follow.
Platinum is the second highest level you can choose to position
at within the SFM and DEA. Its for people who want to really establish themselves as online marketing authority figures.
You can read a blog post about what;s involved here if you like but in short it's designed to use all of your back story, your values and principles and use them to build the brand of you.
To do that Jay and his team need to get to know you very well so it is a pretty deep process and during it people share the trials and traumas they have survived in order to become who they are. Their life stories in short.
My mentors were very moved by some of the life stories they heard at the workshop and shared a Mother Teresa quote they heard about just doing it anyway.
Here it is:
People
are often unreasonable, irrational, and self-centered.
Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives.
Be kind anyway.
If you are successful, you will win some unfaithful friends and some genuine enemies.
Succeed anyway.
If you are honest and sincere people may deceive you.
Be honest and sincere
anyway.
What you spend years creating, others could destroy overnight.
Create anyway.
If you find serenity and happiness, some may be jealous.
Be happy anyway.
The good you do today, will often be forgotten.
Do good anyway.
Give the best you have, and it will never be enough.
Give your best anyway.
In the final analysis, it is between you and God.
It was never between you and them anyway.
Mother Teresa
