Everyone has Handicaps and Dragons

Have you ever met that person that seems like they have everything figured out? They know exactly what they want to do, where they want to be in 5 years, and have the perfect balance of work and play. It seems like there is absolutely nothing that can slow them down.

This sounds great, but does not realistically represent people. People are full of doubt and insecurities. Sometimes we find success, but we still feel like importers.

Handicaps can be physical disabilities, but they do not necessarily have to be.

Some examples include
  • I am physically limited and cannot perform certain tasks ( a physical handicap) 
  •  feeling like you lack experience or qualifications
  •  I don't have the right degree
  • I don't fit the "look"
  • I'm too young and inexperienced
  • I'm too old
  • I'm too shy

The best way to approach a handicap is not to treat it as something that is limiting you. Instead, have a positive attitude towards it. This handicap is adding to your charm.




Keep a positive attitude, and do not let dragons prevent you from pursuing a job, a career, or even just an interest.
