In a world that constantly tries to label you, shape you, and tell you who you should be—remember this: You are more than someone else’s perception of you—great advice from Warren Buffett.
Katharine Graham, who became the first female CEO of a Fortune 500 company, once said:
“The worst handicap people work under is the self-inflicted one – that is, if you’ve grown up thinking of yourself as a second-class citizen, that you tend always to put yourself down.”
Warren Buffett, who mentored her, put it another way:
“The biggest thing I said is, when you look in the mirror, it’s a funhouse mirror because you’re seeing it through the eyes of what others are telling you about yourself.”
“My job was to turn that funhouse mirror into a regular mirror.”
The truth? You don’t need to change. You just need to see yourself clearly.
