Inspired But Not Eclipsed

We’re all so hungry for success–we do the most human thing possible:

Open ourselves to another’s influence.

You see this with banned influencers or ultra serious go-getter entrepreneurs; their following is made up of people who look and sound like them, but it didn’t start that way.

It’s hard not to let them in—they have what you want, they achieved what you’re after.

The problem with this is when you enmesh their personalities into yours– you give up your own uniqueness and godhood– you give up your individuality.

You go from the potential of being your own sun (self sufficient) to orbiting theirs.

And that’s why you should draw lines and be careful where you allow their influence in. The real goal is to become yourself, the one and only. You can’t do that copying another.
