The Boss

I had a convo with the Bff, which does not happen often since she moved to Miami, but anyhow we had to remind ourselves who was in charge. We all have those moments where we feel like we arent good enough. I heard Alicia Keys speaking once, and she was talking about the writing of her song "Superwoman". She was having one of those moments where she just felt ugly, fat, and just not good enough. She changed that energy into a beautiful song.
So in honor of my conversation I had to post my favorite "im the boss" anthem. Im sure you have heard this often, but I dont think you can hear/read this enough. I may have even posted this before...


Our greatest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our greatest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, fabulous, gorgeous, talented? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. You're playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that's within us. It's not just in some of us. It's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we automatically give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fears, our presence automatically liberates others.
