Get exposure and move on!

One of the greatest fears that human beings face is making a fool of themselves in public, being ashamed, and having others notice. However, we have all passed through, and surely we all have more than one unforgettable anecdote about it. I had a few more drinks at the Class annual celebration as a university student. For a reason, I decided to interrupt it and start speaking into the microphone to the whole audience. What an embarrassment! I smile when I remember it, but I still feel a chill. Of course, exposing oneself this way may be meaningless and is explained only by the impulses typical of youth. These types of exhibitions are better known as "blunders". If possible, avoid or enjoy them.

Nevertheless, there are desirable and essential ways in which we should expose ourselves to seek and enjoy personal growth and our ability to serve others better. This exposure also involves public risk. Unlike the "blunder," intelligent exposure greatly benefits the one who does it. Let's get into context: at some point in our lives, we may feel trapped and not know where to move forward.

For some reason, we decide to stop, or unconsciously, we fear the next step. These moments may come after one or several significant life changes, like a financial breakdown, a family breakdown, or who knows what else. These are moments in which we prefer to cover ourselves instead of going out to conquer our territory. At that moment, we have let the environment change us, including our perception of ourselves, how we feel, and how we see things.

The antidote to breaking this negative cycle is to expose yourself again. By intelligently exposing ourselves, we confront the fear that the past situation left us, overcome it, and emerge stronger. This exhibition once again generates empowerment. Empowerment is feeling bigger and more capable inside, while your fears and problems get smaller. At this particular moment, you are renewing your energy, frequency, and vibrations, advancing towards a new state of mind and leaving behind the previous one. It's a liberating and empowering experience.

Let's delve deeper into intelligent exposure, a concept that is unique to each individual. It is linked to the calling to serve that everyone has in life, to their life's purpose, to the strengths each one has, activities that you like, and you are aware how good you are at it, it is something you have to offer others, your passion! We all have between 1 and 3 areas of strength. In my case, being an entrepreneur is the most important. From there, I can find a couple more that are to my taste, the practice in the financial markets, and my joy for writing. If I am to expose myself, let it be bringing courage through these areas to others. Given the passion and my joy for them, with continuous learning, I can make a difference in the audience to which I address my efforts. This works for everyone. No two people are equal in this world, so you have no competition to serve others with what you have.

Once the first step is taken, progress continues on the same basis by making the necessary adjustments. Exposure can also be given when starting a personal project or new challenges in your workplace. It can be starting to send resumes or training in a topic you have wanted, moving to a new country, ending a relationship that did not suit you, or the complete opposite. Everyone has to assume the challenge to the best of their ability. It's a step of faith! Your instinct or intuition has little margin for error, don't forget. Intuition is the combination of emotional memory with knowledge.

Don't wait any longer; taking action is key. The recipe for growth and empowerment is the exposition: Take that first step, and the rest will follow.

1. What is that decision that you have been putting off? What is your strong area? Will you be able to grow from it?

2. Define what you will do, no matter how small, and do it. Then, let everyone notice it.

3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 forever. Now, tell yourself what your next step will be.
