642 Love Versus Ego with Taye Diggs

Lewis Howes
About this episode

"CONVINCE YOURSELF YOU ARE WORTH IT.”
Have you ever wondered, “What value do I have? Am I good enough? How can I compete against others?”
Those thoughts stem from you comparing yourself to others. It’s a natural habit, but it’s one that is going to hold you back.
Your value comes from you. From being who you are, and all of the experiences you went through.
This world, and finding your place in it, is all about you being you and trusting in your instincts.
If you compare yourself to others, you’re always going to feel like you’re coming up short.
The truth is, you are great now. Every experience you go through, good or bad, makes you something special.
To go further into this, I wanted to dive into a previous episode with Taye Diggs.
Taye is an actor and singer who has had an incredible career in film and theatre. He was in the film, How Stella Got Her Groove Back, and the TV series Private Practice, among many other career highlights.
Listen to all of Taye’s insights, on Episode 642.

The thing you need to convince yourself of (1:14)
How to find your inner power (1:47)
