EXPERTS WERE BEGINNERS TOO
Embracing the Courage to Start
We often look at successful people and see only their achievements — not the countless times they started again, made mistakes, and learned along the way. But the truth is, every expert began as a beginner.
To link in with the image above - for those that follow us will know that we are enthusiastic skiers.
Never would the sentiment be more true....
Every skill, mindset, and habit we admire in others began with a single step (or fall in the case of skiing).
Think of the first time someone put on their ski boots, stood in front of an audience, or learned to manage stress differently.
None of those beginnings felt easy, yet each one mattered.
On Reflection...
Starting something new can bring fear of failure or comparison — especially in workplaces or personal goals where we expect instant results.
But growth takes time. The willingness to be a beginner again builds resilience, curiosity, and confidence.
Linking the theme to Wellbeing
Mental and emotional wellbeing flourish when we let go of perfection and embrace progress.
By being kind to yourself in the process of learning, you strengthen your self-belief and make space for authentic growth.
