Trappstr Part 9 – (we all should stink, battle life & domination)

My new blog buddy Brett Trapp wrote this post on 28 things he’s learned in his 20’s. Since I am so much older and wiser than Brett (3 whopping months) and since I loved it so much, I thought I’d take each of those things and elaborate on them over the next several days.

I had to put these three together because they just flow…

19. There are things I’m just not good at and the sooner I can accept that fact, the better. -Trappstr

I still wrestle with this. I need to do what only I can do so that others can do what only they can do. When that happens everyone wins and the best results are produced. Many of us have seen Rudy too many times.

Nobody wants to stink at anything but we all need to stink at much so we can be great at what we were created to do.

20. Humility is a lifelong battle. -Trappstr

Battle is the perfect word. If we understood #19 better we might not have to battle quite as much. I often forget that pride is one of the seven deadly sins. WOW!

21. 90% of people are absolutely dominated by their insecurities. -Trappstr

Back to #19 again. If we focused on what we are great at and quit worrying about what we stink so bad at our insecurities wouldn’t dominate us because we could release them!
