Look the world in the eyes.
Say: This is who I am. This is what I stand for. This is what I'll do.
Have the courage to be the both the sender and the receiver, in one. Show up, with all your messy glory. Don't turn your gaze down, but be proud of who you are. Lock eyes with the world. Show that you are not afraid.
Dare to be seen. We connect through our eyes. Let the world look into your soul. Don't hide.
Keep your eyes open, even if tears start to fall. To be seen is to be vulnerable. To be vulnerable is to be strong. Let the world see you in your humanness. Let your eyes speak.
Fix your gaze on the world and truly see what you see. Dare to take in what is right in front of you. Don't close your eyes to the uncomfortable truth. Know what you know. It the only way through.
But most importantly, don't just see – have vision.
Say "this is what I'm here for".
