Do you remember your first Icebreaker?
How did you prepare to introduce yourself?
Contest chair
Preparing for mine went like this
First
What to wear?
Mirror mirror on the wall
Option 1, no
Option 2, no
Option 3, oh yeah
Second
What to say
Lets check the mirror
Option 1,
how about my business card
My name is souad
I’m jobless
First time mom
Grandma’s feedback
You’re doing ok
Not enough
Option 2
Our love to a specific animal
can tell a lot about our personality
I love little birds, they are cute, and graceful
I will introduce myself as a bird
Again Not enough
Option 3
We were watching the lion king MOVIE
It was a teaching moment
When the monkey
hit timone on the head and said
To find it, you must look
Beyoooooooooooooooooond what you seeee
hmmmmmmmm??????
Bird, tree, tree branches!!
My favorite
Naked branches, with blooming flowers in the spring
So elegant
Reaching up high into the sky
Powerful
This is me
Bit by bit,
I was able to recognize the big picture
Me as a tree
Looking down
I see my routes
It felt like what I receive from the world
Three main routes
Nurture, from family, friends, and even strangers
Knowledge: from school, work, and mentors
Faith, my inner strength, connection to god
Looking up, I see my branches
It felt like what I give back to the world
four main branches
The first, is all about the basics
I’m souad,
Lebanese
With added routes from Iraq, Syria, Palestine, and Armenia
rarely anyone guessed
where I come from
The seocnd branch
Holds a list of my skills
Such as planning,
Budgeting
and problems solving
the 3 branch is my main goal in life
Share joyful life recipes
The 4 branch is My legacy
Its the newest, work in progress branch
at the top
Its What I want to download, produce, then share
the best stuff stored in here
I felt empowered seeing myself
As a rich mind map
I Couldn’t help myself
I had to
share with my friend
I asked Julia
How do you see yourself in a big picture?
then I gave her my tree as an example
She said
----------- Waaaw
----------- this is a very attractive question
I need time to look deep inside
To be able to visualize myself
Later she shared
I imagine myself a big beautiful house
I welcome all visitors
I provide them with shelter, food, comfort,
I want all visitors to enjoy their stay
And in return I get energy
because lets face it
an empty house would feel Like being friendless
I enjoy every visit;
Each visitor gives me a different energy and vibe
Her answer tempted me to ask other friends
Whom replied with beautiful,
colorful,
detailed pictures
in which they saw themselves
Frank saw himself as a sailor
David saw himself as a waterwheel
And Jackie saw herself as a tree,
yet it was totally different than mine
Ahhhhh’’’’’’’’
Introducing ourselves is a big deal
Yet discovering
Our real self
Makes all the difference
For me
it goes beyond a job title
the excess weight
or poor eye sight
I am enough
a
To echo this good feeling
I’m here to
invite you to find your big picture
Keep sharing your business card
or whatever showcases
your talent and strengths
Only pause
Do it after you find your big picture
look beyond what you see
Discover how special you are
perhaps your big picture will serve as your
self-empowering business card
or might feel like you are being photoshopeed
or it might be a simple reminder of your strengths
the sky is the limit
And next time before you introduce yourself
Pause
replay your big picture
with all the perfect details
sink into the positivity generated from it
As this positivity will be the strong base
Of a fruitful,
Joyful
Creative life
And from now on when you look into the mirror
Whether you’re preparing to meet someone or not
Stand up prouder than ever before
Knowing that the UNIQUE way you see yourself
YOUR BIG PICTURE
is a simple proof that
“You Are Enough”
