Kick "this or that" as your only choice to the curb !

This or that, what about AND?
Have you ever heard, “You can have this or that, either/or?”
“You can not have both.”
“Make a choice of one of the two.”
Here are just a few of the countless “either/or” -“this or that” I have been told:
- You can be smart or popular
- You can have fear or have courage
- You can have chocolate or strawberry
- You can be powerful or weak
- You can be generous or rich
- You can be polite or stick up for yourself
- You can be an introvert or an extrovert
- You can be a mom or an entrepreneur
- You can be strong or feminine
Are you getting my drift as it’s blowing in like a hurricane?
Who in the hell said you have to be either – or? Who said you can not be BOTH? Society, family, friends, etc… But…
What happened to AND?
- You can be smart AND popular
- You can have fear AND have courage
- You can have chocolate AND strawberry
- You can be powerful AND weak
- You can be generous AND rich
- You can be polite AND stick up for yourself
- You can be an introvert AND an extrovert
- You can be a mom AND an entrepreneur
- You can be strong AND feminine
Let’s not define our possibilities by OR —and let’s start using AND.
Let’s get our lives where we want them to be, what deep in our heart we desire by knowing when there is an AND.
Let’s kick the OR to the curb and know that more often than not, AND is possible.
Are you ready AND willing to see your potential?
Yes, I bet you are:)
