How often have you compared yourself to someone that you admired and thought that you would never be able to accomplish what they have?
How often have you stopped taking action before you even started because you convinced yourself that you couldn't possibly get your message out as effectively as they have?
How often have you shied away from sharing your message because you assumed that they have already said pretty much what you were planning on saying anyway - so what was the point?
You are you.
There is only one you.
And your voice needs to be heard.
It deserves to be heard.
Your style of getting your message out there is unique to only you. Your approach is yours and yours alone. Your heart only belongs to you, and therefore, you are the only one who can voice what is in it. You are the only one who can express your inner wisdom.
And your message is so important.
It's worth pressing through your perceived limitations to step into the spotlight.
It's worth pushing aside your own insecurities about not being sure if you are good enough to have a voice.
It's worth rising above the barriers that you have put in place in order to protect yourself.
It's worth all of this because what you have to say matters.
So the next time you start comparing yourself to someone else - the next time you start to feel inferior or intimidated by all that they have accomplished - the next time you decide to pause and not take action because you aren't sure if what you have to say truly matters... STOP.
You are the only one who can shout your message from the mountains.
You are the only one who can inspire others with the message inside your heart.
And your voice is important and absolutely necessary in our world.
Let us all hear it!

Workplace Romance - Should You Or Shouldn't You?
Dear Keith and Maura, Do you think it means anything if a guy you like at work happens to give you his cell phone number out of the blue, or if you ask that guy – joking around – if he can give you a ride home from work and he has a big grin on his face? I work at a grocery store ...

How Could This Be About Me?
Dear Keith and Maura, I just found your website and podcasts yesterday and they totally resonate with me. I am a very active youthful 55. I was widowed suddenly at 32 with 2 babies. My soulmate died and I was lost and devastated. I banged around for 10 years raising my boys, working and trying to find a similar loving relationship as I had. I met losers, liars, cheaters, alcoholics, and abusers.
