You there. I want you to say, aloud, at some point today "I'm really glad I'm good at..." And then you're gonna say something you think you do pretty well.
If you don't think you do anything pretty well, I want you to say "one little thing that makes me unique is..."
And if you can't do either?

I recently finished this course. It's super accessible and hits on a lot of critical points. 2 hours later and I've already planned out two of the personal projects I'm working on. It's an easy recommend from me. Thank you, Chris! Also, nice first name 😉
