“Your generosity is more important than your perfection.”
— Seth Godin
I know it can take some courage and boldness to make a difference. Both in your life, and what you want to see in the world, moving forward, standing out is rarely comfortable.
But perhaps you could reframe it all.
If you really want to make a difference, perhaps instead of seeing it as requiring you to go beyond your comfort zone, perhaps you could see it, as Seth Godin says, as an act of generosity on your behalf.
By bringing change to the world you’re being extremely generous. You’re creating good. You’re making a difference; a difference that might have died if you left it until later – which like tomorrow, never actually arrives.
Generosity is not just a re-framing of being bold. It’s caring enough to actually speak up and “do up” – doing that which makes everyone’s lives that much easier, that much more full, that much more enjoyable.
Contributing to your community. Being a leader. Being and enacting the change you wish to see in the world. They all take a generous spirit.
