Work Life Play: Hosted by Aaron McHugh

Betting on Yourself Episode #76

Apple Podcasts Spotify Google Podcasts Overcast

Warren Buffett says, Invest in what you know. Buffett is speaking about investing in things you already know and understand. I believe the idea applies to our Work Life Play. Betting on yourself is the best investment you can make of your time, money, resources and emotional calories.

Bet on yourself.

There is no other investment on the planet that provides the same rate of return as investing and betting on you. You are the best investment there is.

I am speaking to the deepest part of you

I hope you will listen to this episode from the inside out. I’m hoping you will listen past the excuses, past the voice of disqualification and past the reason’s you’ve believed betting on yourself is risky. You can do this.

  1. You are more powerful than you believe.
  2. You are more influential than you think.
  3. Invest a dollar, an hour and an ounce of emotional energy in yourself.
  4. You will never loose.
  5. Markets are volatile.  You are steady.
  6. Money is fleeting.  You are constant.
  7. Risk equals reward and sometimes just a good story.

Our Greatest Fear —Marianne Williamson

it is our light not our darkness that most frightens us

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.

Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.

It is our light not our darkness that most frightens us.

We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous,

talented and fabulous?

Actually, who are you not to be?

You are a child of God.

Your playing small does not serve the world.

There’s nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other

people won’t feel insecure around you.

We were born to make manifest the glory of

God that is within us.

It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone.

And as we let our own light shine,

we unconsciously give other people

permission to do the same.

As we are liberated from our own fear,

Our presence automatically liberates others.

—Marianne Williamson
