Take a “Risk” & Be Yourself

September 16, 2009

Tonight, I had a little chat with my daughter about the fuchsia shoes she just bought and plans to wear to school. The upshot goes like this: There is zero risk in being yourself. You only take risks when you try to hide who you are or pretend to be something you’re not.

Interested in the whole conversation? You should be. It’s entertaining and watching it will save you hundreds of dollars by allowing you to cancel your next life coaching session. Here ya go:

This is a great video, Jason. I am just beginning with blogging about career issues in higher ed, and coaching. I find your blog very insightful and entertaining. As a father of 2 small kids, I also appreciated the sweet nature of your interaction with Elle in this video. Cute kid! (And smart!) Looking forward to reading more. Thanks for sharing your insights and a little peek into your real life with your readers.

Sean, when it comes to parenting this one, I find my job is pretty much to reach the stuff on the top shelf and occasionally help her sound out a complicated word… and that’s about it. Thanks for the comment and the link on your blog!
