Your struggles develop your strengths. When you go through hardships and decide not to surrender, that is strength. –Arnold Schwarzenegger WHERE TO START:  To Know Your Strengths, Look to Your Struggles I next-leveled my strengths about ten years ago when I stopped trying to be good at everything and listened to the mentors in my life who told me what they saw in me that was strong and unique. For me, my strengths are focused-energy, massive-action-taking, and authentic enthusiasm for life … the more I was encouraged to just be me, the more I was able to level up my strengths. What struggles have strengthened you? What are your top three personal strengths? What are your top three weaknesses? Channel Your Power Know your strengths Create an inner alter-ego to channel Repeat truth to yourself Don’t let false humility keep you from shining Never apologize for your strengths Resist the temptation to assume everyone has the same strengths as you – that what you have is “no big deal” … it is a big deal! LEVELING UP YOUR DREAMS AND CHARACTER It’s not possible to “level up” your dreams without first leveling up your character, but to level up your character, you have to first know what matters most to you and then to use that information as a compass for how you live life and how you pursue your dream life. What five character traits matter most to you?! Mine are: Love, Kindness, Generosity, Truth, Congruency Share them – let’s talk about them! What does next-leveling your dream look like? Seriously. Let’s talk, next-level (1) dream and (2) dream life.
