One reason why you may be having a difficult time sharing your point of view with conviction is because you don't really have a point of view.
You haven't taken the time to develop an authentic, compelling perspective that is uniquely yours and that clearly states what you believe in.
You haven't developed your voice, unearthed your narrative, articulated your story – to yourself.
You want so badly to be heard and praised and seen and validated and loved – but you're not willing to be vulnerable and bare your soul.
You haven't done the work.
Instead of revealing who you really are, you borrow ideas and meanings and theories and points of view from others and pass them off as your own.
You conflate being influenced and inspired and motivated by other people's ideas with plagiarism and theft.
And you don't understand why it falls flat – just like everything does that's disingenuous, fake, a facade.
And then you wonder why people aren't responding to you the way you'd like them to. Why you're not driving impact. Why you're not affecting change.
You don't appreciate that being influential involves deep self-exploration, ongoing self-reflection on what matters to you.
You don't seem to understand that having said something is not the same thing as having something to say.
