Mindset Mondays with DTK – Ep #094 — "May I be I" … It's easy to be what is expected. Well, actually, it's soul crushing. And I know you get that. We've all had times in our lives where we've tried to be who we should be or must be or need to be or ought to be. It seems to be a rite of passage … to cease bending to the homogenizing cultural forces and stand up for oneself.But that rite is not tied to a single age or stage. For some it happens young. For some we are older. Still others late in life. And for some they never get there. E.E. Cummings tells us why:"It takes courage to grow up and become who you really are."He also shared that "'May I be I' is the only prayer — not may I be great or good or beautiful or wise or strong." May I be I. Simple. Clear. Direct. Pure.What will you do today to be the person you are meant to be?

Mindset Mondays with DTK – Ep #094 — “May I be I” …
It’s easy to be what is expected. Well, actually, it’s soul crushing. And I know you get that. We’ve all had times in our lives where we’ve tried to be who we should be or must be or need to be or ought to be. It seems to be a rite of passage … to cease bending to the homogenizing cultural forces and stand up for oneself.
But that rite is not tied to a single age or stage. For some it happens young. For some we are older. Still others late in life. And for some they never get there. E.E. Cummings tells us why:
“It takes courage to grow up and become who you really are.”
He also shared that “‘May I be I’ is the only prayer — not may I be great or good or beautiful or wise or strong.” May I be I. Simple. Clear. Direct. Pure.
What will you do today to be the person you are meant to be?
