Are you being candid with yourself?

Monday Morning Motivation – Candid

By: Curt Stowers

Sharing Resources to Help You Grow Personally, Professionally & Financially

Sometimes it helps to get a little dose of encouragement—along with a good cup of coffee!—to start the day.

Hopefully, the message below will help you get off to a good start for the week. Please feel free to forward the newsletter on to others that you think would benefit from the content. Today we discuss "candid."


Candid


Candid, by definition, refers to our ability to be truthful and straightforward in situations. It’s about how we behave when no one is watching.

I can still remember the show “Candid Camera” with Alan Funt. Alan and his crew would set up some sort of scenario and show us how folks responded to the scenario. It was insightful to see how people reacted when they “knew” no one was watching.

It’s important to remember that, even though Alan Funt is likely NOT filming your life, it still matters how you act when no one is watching. Being candid with yourself is absolutely critical if you want to live your best life—that is, to live a life of no regrets.

That brings us to this week’s question:

  • Are you being candid with yourself?

Thanks for sharing a bit of your time with me this Monday morning 

Have a great week!
