The Positivity of Pride


'I have never met someone who is living a bold and successful life - and by successful I mean prosperous, kind and in touch with meaningfulness of what they're doing - who has apologized for being perfectionistic, mercurial, unrelenting, or whatever their slightly controversial hallmark characteristics are.

You will always be too much of something for someone:  too loud, too big, too soft, too edgy.  If you round your edges, you lose your edge.

Apologize for mistakes.  Apologize for unintentionally hurting someone - profusely.

But don't apologize for being who you are.'

- Danielle Laporte
