Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey guys, Jackson read here and welcome back to Unstoppable Men. Today,
we're diving into something that hits close to home, something
we all wrestle with from time to time, the urge
to play small. Ever, feel like you're holding yourself back,
like there's this invisible wall stopping you from reaching your
full potential. You know that feeling when you have a
brilliant idea but then second guess yourself, shrink back and

(00:23):
let it slip away. That's playing small, my friends, and
it's a trap we can all fall into. But here's
the thing. I refuse to play small, and neither should you.
This isn't about arrogance or being egotistical. It's about embracing
your power, owning your worth, and stepping boldly into the
greatness that's already inside you. So let's break this down.

(00:43):
Here are five key takeaways to help you shatter those
self imposed limits and unleash your true potential. First up,
know your value. This isn't about bragging or comparing yourself
to others. It's about recognizing the unique gifts, talents, and
experiences that make you you. You have something special to
offer the world. Own it. Remember that time you aced
that presentation, or when you've helped a friend through a

(01:06):
tough situation. Those moments are proof of your strength, your intelligence,
and your capacity for greatness. Second, stop seeking external validation.
Let's be real. Chasing approval from others is exhausting and
ultimately unsatisfying. It's like trying to fill a bottomless pit
with breadcrumbs. True confidence comes from within. Start focusing on

(01:26):
your own goals, your passions, and what truly matters to you. Third,
speak your truth. This doesn't mean being rude or aggressive.
It means expressing your thoughts and feelings authentically and respectfully.
Don't be afraid to share your opinions, even if they
differ from the crowd. Your voice deserves to be heard.
Think about those times when you stayed silent out of

(01:47):
fear or insecurity. Chances are you would have benefited from
speaking up. Fourth, take calculated risks. I'm not saying go
skydiving without a parachute, but stepping outside your comfort zone
is essential for growth. Whether it's trying a new hobby,
applying for that dream job, or simply having a tough conversation.
Embrace the discomfort and see what incredible possibilities unfold. Remember,

(02:10):
risk taking isn't about avoiding failure, It's about embracing the
opportunity to learn and grow from every experience. Finally, surround
yourself with positive energy. You are who you spend your
time with. Make sure those around you uplift you, encourage you,
and challenge you to be your best self. Distance yourself
from negativity, and embrace the power of a supportive community.

(02:31):
Think about that friend who always brings you down, or
that colleague who constantly undermines your efforts. Now imagine swapping
them for people who celebrate your successes, offer constructive feedback,
and believe in your potential. That's the kind of energy
that fuels growth and empowers you to break free from
playing small. Here's a real life example. A few months ago,

(02:51):
I had this brilliant idea for a new project. It
was something I was really passionate about, but deep down,
I felt this nagging fear of failure holding me back.
What if people didn't like it, what if it wasn't successful.
Those doubts almost kept me from sharing my idea with anyone.
But then I remembered these key takeaways. I have value
to offer. Seeking external validation as a trap Speaking your

(03:14):
truth is crucial, and taking calculated risks can lead to
incredible rewards. So I took a deep breath, shared my
idea with my trusted mentor, and you know what, he
loved it. His encouragement gave me the confidence to move forward,
and now that project is thriving. That's the power of
refusing to play small. So remember this. You are capable

(03:35):
of amazing things. Don't let fear or self doubt hold
you back. Embrace your power, own your worth, and step
into the greatness that's already within you. Refuse to play small,
my friends, the world needs your unique talents, your passion,
and your unwavering spirit. Now go out there and make
it happen. And hey, don't forget to share this episode

(03:55):
with a friend who needs a little boost of confidence.
You never know your words might just inspire them to
refuse to play small too. Keep crushing it, guys. Until
next time, stay unstoppable. This podcast is created with the
help of advanced AI to deliver thoughtful affirmations and positive

(04:18):
messages just for you.
