Thereโ€™s a bigger story.

The Battle between Confidence and Humility

When I started my book tour, people were always asking me, โ€œHow are you going to stay humble?โ€

Itโ€™s not easy.

When you start getting recognition, it can go to your head.

But you canโ€™t share your message if you donโ€™t believe in yourself.

Itโ€™s a balance.

You need to be confident but also know that itโ€™s not all about you. You are a part of the story, not the whole thing.

For this 5-Minute Friday, I revisited a conversation I had with Brad Lomenick where we explore the tension between confidence and humility.

Brad Lomenick is a renowned speaker, writer, leadership advisor, and founder of Blinc Consulting. He is the author of the groundbreaking book, The Catalyst Leader: Eight Essentials for Becoming a Change Maker, as well as his most recent leadership book, H3 Leadership: Be Humble, Stay Hungry, Always Hustle.

Brad says that the best leaders all have healthy ambition.

Learn how to dance the dance of humility and confidence in Episode 762.

โ€œItโ€™s easy to be humble when you have nothing to be proud of.โ€ – @bradlomenick
