Oh, the difficulty of receiving!<\/span><\/p>\n

This photo is from 2014. I was speaking at a seminar organized by FEW (For Empowering Women) Japan and this was the panel discussion toward the end of the event.<\/span><\/p>\n

After this, there was a raffle.<\/span><\/p>\n

My name came up as a winner!<\/span><\/p>\n

In my mind, as a speaker, it wasn\u2019t appropriate for me to be a winner (not sure where I got that idea from\u2026). So I said, \u201cOh, no. It\u2019s okay. Please pick again.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

So they did.<\/span><\/p>\n

And my name came up again\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n

This happened 5 times – and each time I refused to receive the prize!!!<\/span><\/p>\n

I told this story at my recent 10-Year Business Anniversary Celebration because I see it as a great example of how many of us find it difficult to receive.<\/span><\/p>\n

We\u2019re taught from a young age not to be selfish and to think of others first.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Maybe deep inside we want to receive, but we\u2019re worried about what others might think of us.<\/span><\/p>\n

Receiving could be raffle prizes or gifts, praise (\u201cOh, no, it was nothing really\u201d), compliments (\u201cOh, this is just a cheap dress I\u2019ve had for years\u201d), and time\u2026 for\u2026 ourselves\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n

But what happens when you refuse to receive?<\/span><\/p>\n

You deprive the person giving the gift, praise, or compliment of the full joy of giving.<\/span><\/p>\n

Or you keep giving your time, energy, and attention to your work, family, friends, and others without taking proper care of yourself with adequate rest, nutrition, exercise, and fun! Then you\u2019re ultimately physically, mentally, and emotionally depleted and unable to perform at your best.<\/span><\/p>\n

And have you considered what you\u2019re teaching others – junior colleagues or your children, perhaps?<\/span><\/p>\n

So, if what you\u2019ve just read sounds like you, I invite you to do something different this week:<\/span><\/p>\n

Practice receiving – take time for yourself (to sleep, eat, exercise, and have fun), accept gifts, praise, and compliments – so that you can perform at your best, feel fabulous, and be a great role model.<\/span><\/p>\n

Let me know below how it goes!<\/span><\/p>\n
