Hi, I\u2019m Buffi, and I\u2019m a 9.5 in shoes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Is this how you would introduce yourself?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I hope not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It\u2019s weird.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Even if your real name is Buffi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Still weird.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Why is it weird?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Because (and this might shock you\u2026) I\u2019m not a number.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And neither are you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This means I\u2019m not 70 kilos, I\u2019m not a size 42, I\u2019m not a million-dollar coach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I don\u2019t reduce myself to a number.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I\u2019m not my weight and I am not my bank account. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
That is not how I choose to identify myself. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Imagine introducing yourself to someone and saying <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hi I\u2019m Mark and my pants size is 48! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sounds crazy right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So why do we put so much emphasis on these numbers?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Reducing yourself to a digit neglects the beauty of your resilience, the power of your spirit, and the depth of your character. Life is not a numerical equation. It’s a magnificent journey filled with twists, turns, and opportunities for growth. Your worth cannot be encapsulated by a set of digits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You are always adding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Subtracting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Growing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Don\u2019t be reductive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You\u2019re worth more than that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Those numbers that get tossed around so freely are not a measure of your self-worth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They don\u2019t reflect your kindness, your intelligence, or the love you share with the world. Likewise, your bank account is not a testament to your value as a person. True wealth lies in the richness of your relationships, the joy you spread, and the impact you make on the lives of others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Keep that in mind the next time you refer to yourself as a number.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Oh, and if you see someone who calls themselves a million-dollar coach?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
That\u2019s how they choose to identify themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Not by serving a million clients, but by their bank account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Just keep that in mind the next time you are thinking of hiring a coach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What do they value?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Their bank account or the lives they have changed?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Just sayin\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Liefs,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
