You Were Never Missing Anything

“I don’t have what it takes.”
It doesn’t usually start with failure.
It starts when you see someone else winning—and you feel yourself shrinking.

They look confident.
They’re bold, brave, visible.
And something in you whispers, “That’s for them—not for me.”

You start believing there’s some X-factor you missed.
Some secret ingredient you don’t have.

But here’s what’s truer than that whisper:
Everything you need is already in you.

It may be buried under doubt.
Or tangled in old messages about what’s possible for someone “like you.”
But it’s there.

What you lack isn’t capacity—it’s permission.

Maybe someone told you early on that you weren’t enough.
Maybe you didn’t see your reflection in people who led.
But their limits don’t define your reach.

Ask yourself:

• Whose voice convinced me I wasn’t ready?
  

• What am I comparing myself to that’s not even fair?
  

• What would change if I stopped waiting to feel ready—and just began?
  

You have what it takes.
Even now.
Especially now.
