Let the World See You
Author: Sam Acho
Publisher: Thomas Nelson
ISBN: 1400220459
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 240
Book Description
NFL linebacker, speaker, podcaster, and humanitarian Sam Acho gives a blueprint for taking off our masks and living lives of genuine authenticity. Most of us hide. We play small and don't live up to our full potential. Sam Acho was one of those people. As an NFL linebacker, for example, he earned his MBA but told no one because he was afraid of what people might think if they found out that he cared about things that weren't "normal" for his profession. After many years of hiding himself, the person he had become had no connection to the real Sam. Only when he lost a friend and a mentor did he realize he was doing it all wrong--just like many us do, when we try to become someone we're not. All the while, we ignore the unique gifts and talents and personality we truly possess. But there is another way of living: Let the world see you. Your quirks, your passions, and your inner desires were not given to you by accident. And the world needs your gifts. In Let the World See You, Sam Acho shares lessons from his own life as well as stories from others to reveal how you can overcome your fears and discover your true selves. Being the real you pays big. No one else has what you have. No one else can share what you share. Let the World See You helps crack the shell of people who are in hiding and reveals the benefits of a lifestyle lived on purpose.

God has given us all a story that is woven around our purpose, whether we choose to live a life that fulfills it or not. Our true purpose is to love, even though we donaEUR(tm)t know how much time we have. Life is filled with many options and so many people that it is sometimes hard to know which to choose and who to actually listen to. IaEUR(tm)m grateful to God for placing some recognizably wise people in my life who are there to encourage me in making good choices.The aftermath and far reach for the spiritual resolve of a seemingly unfulfilled existence can cause prolonged and inexplicable grief. It is in the complete acceptance of humanityaEUR(tm)s biggest certainty, death, that one will start to acknowledge it as part of life and, in doing so, come back to life.Life almost faked them out! Hosea and India may never have had a successful life together on this plane due to their extreme differences in callings; their true purposes; and overall lifeaEUR(tm)s expectancy, desires, and dreams. Yet they had real love as real as Romeo and JulietaEUR(tm)s. A woman by the name of Jeanette Winterson was onto something that hinges on authenticity (aEURoereal talkaEUR) as she penned the following quote in a book called Written on the Body:aEURoeYouaEUR(tm)ll get over itaEUR|aEUR ItaEUR(tm)s the clichA(c)s that cause the trouble. To lose someone you love is to alter your life forever. You donaEUR(tm)t get over it because aEUR~itaEUR is the person you loved. The pain stops, there are new people, but the gap never closes. How could it? The particularness of someone who mattered enough to grieve over is not made anodyne by death. This hole in my heart is in the shape of you, and no-one else can fit it. Why would I want them to?
