1 " You are not your history. You are the stories you tell yourself. "
― Leslie Ehm , Swagger: Unleash Everything You Are and Become Everything You Want
2 " You wouldn't pick up someone else's baggage off the carousel. So why do it in life? "
3 " If there’s more than one ‘version’ of you, one of them is lying. "
4 " There’s no such thing as “sounding smart”. Smart is either knowing or seeking to know. "
5 " To have swagger, your intention has to outweigh your fear. "
6 " Swagger requires you to let your guard down. If nothing can get in, then nothing can get out. "
7 " When you filter your truth through the lens of approval, you only say things you’ve seen approved of in the past. "
8 " When you confess your mess, you invite everyone else to say “ME TOO!” That’s connection. "
9 " Stop waiting for someone to tell you it’s OK to be yourself. Swagger needs no permission. "
10 " Love your swagger haters. They’re a reminder that you have something valuable they don’t. "
11 " When you keep your sh*t real, it’s your true self that achieves, is acknowledged, and celebrated. "
12 " The fear of speaking your truth isn’t cured by having a title. This is a human condition, not a positional one. "
13 " Use facts to fight the demons of insecurity. Facts don't lie. But that voice in your head does. "
14 " Insecurity is rarely about the challenge in front of us. It’s the history of self-doubt that is the killer. "
15 " There’s no bad truth. But there is bad timing. "
16 " Once you start censoring yourself for others, you're giving them to power to decide what, when, where and how much you say. "
17 " No one has a problem with swearing when you tell them how f*cking awesome they are. "
18 " Swagger isn’t just about what you do or say. It’s how you feel about it. "
19 " Having swagger doesn’t mean you’re immune to self-doubt. But it sure as hell dictates what you do with it. "
20 " Being expected to apologize means allowing others to judge your intention. "
