BirthDay Month the final day.steemCreated with Sketch.

Did you survive? I think you did. I mean did you die? ;)

We have survived the full month long birthday celebration. As it comes to a close, I am so grateful.

Twenty-Six.

Not sure how this twenty-six year will play out. Today I was reminded what I put on my vision board at work. The house will be purchased in August. The promotion will be achieved soon afterwards if not sooner.

Then I think about the conversation I had today with my manager.

He pulls me in to the office for a chat. My report was due in a few minutes and it was already technically late, so this couldn't be good. Much to my surprise, he says I have given this a lot of thought and don't think you understand.

His making some serious eye contact and asks me, do you know how awesome I think you are?

Why is it so much easier to believe in others than in yourself?

He was taken back my request for his assistance. He knew that I could handle it on my own and wanted me to know that he had full confidence in me.

That is the third time within the last two months that someone has said, Kubby you are awesome. The fact that you don't know that is surprising.

I struggle to believe this to be true, but when I remember that look.

When my manager sat me down and
looked at me like he looks at his little girls,
like my dad looks at me,
like my friends look at me,
and say with full convection that you are better than you think.

Thank you for the gif @simgirl

How could I still doubt?

Do you doubt the greatest that is in you? What do you believe is the root cause of your doubt? What helps you overcome those negative voices? How do you achieve your goals?# Where are your favorite places to eat in NYC, in your home town, in general?


Thank you @aleister for the graphic

Why is it so much easier to believe in others than in yourself?

Because you're your own worse critic and hold yourself up to impossibly high standards that you don't expect from anyone else?

not that I'm speaking from experience at all >_>

Hope you had an awesome birth month :D

pic may take a while more sorrryyyyyy XD

Once again, Happy Birthday Kubby, and thanks for all you do around @MinnowSupport, and for what you've been doing for @Msp-Waves Radio! Happy 26!

Of course WEEEE made it. Just kinda shocked that you did. I mean...with all that CAKE and SINGING. Its no small wonder that a girl made it through. But seems that you did!! You earn a trophy!!!

XD

We love ya Kubby.....(even if some of us can't pronounce your name right!)

Enjoy your 26th year!! Its gonna be a good one.... And....Happy Halloween!!

A trophy, did you say I won a TROPHY? I love winning, trophy's, and those that can pronounce my name correctly (and those that refuse to). :)

<3 Love you too, thanks for being awesome and wishing me a happy birthday!

That was a really cool post. I really enjoyed reading it.

I really enjoyed our chat too. I'm so full of doubt all the times for whatever reasons.

Namaste! It means something like I'm grateful.

I think we all doubt at some point. Glad to know I'm not alone, thank you my friend! Lets chat soon!

are we in for another round of "extended birthmonth"?
you got to extend it, we had so much fun :D

bahahah, extend it? Not sure about that. That would be a bit much, or maybe it wouldn't, I'll let you know! :)
