Told She'd Never Fill a Theater. Look at Her Now | Lindsey Stirling
WHERE YOUR FOCUS GOES, YOUR ENERGY WILL FLOW.
How do you define yourself?
Do you use words like “ugly,” “fat,” or “shy?”
Social media and advertising like to tell us that we’re not enough. But you don’t have to live by anyone else’s definition-you have the power to create your own.
Write your own view of yourself. Right now. Do it.
What you believe you will be is what you will become.
On today’s episode of The School of Greatness, I’m sharing a powerful presentation from The Summit of Greatness from a musician who redefined a genre and herself: Lindsey Stirling.
Lindsey Stirling is a violinist, dancer, performance artist, composer, and singer who presents amazing choreographed violin performances. Stirling was second place on last year’s Dancing With The Stars, has been named Forbes magazine's 30 Under 30 In Music, and was a quarter-finalist position on America's Got Talent season five.
Billions of people have now watched her videos on YouTube.
Lindsey struggled with depression and anorexia. It wasn’t until she decided to change her thought patterns about herself and about her future that became the powerful musician we know today.
