Your best self - how do you turn up?

When you turn up what version of yourself do your clients get?
Are the things that make you you in their very best form?

Do the genes that make your DNA align to form the most effective version of yourself or do you sometimes find they it may create a second rate version of you?

This concept may not be a new one to you but are you turning these characteristics that could be seen as second rate into first rate people experiences for your clients, friends and family?

​This is where is get interesting.

Next time you find yourself thinking you carry a certain 'negative' trait, you might like to see it as a strength. Perhaps your arrogance is boldness, your bullying is directness, and your emotional temperament is your passion being expressed. It is, if you turn up as the best version of that in your life and work. This takes good self-awareness and extraordinary compassion, whether the subject of attention is you or someone else.
This requires you to be equal parts empowered and humbled by the fact that much of your strengths are built from your shadows. All you have to do is bring the positive version of these to the table/work/people every day.

Do you have the ability to judge and discern the difference. If not then this can be a beautiful 'work on' for you to raise that self awareness. If you do then no reason to not bring this enlightened version of yourself to the party each and every day. People will get the best version of you - why wouldn't you want them to experience any other version?
