One of our daughters, Tirzah graduated this weekend with her Master's Degree in Psychology at the age of 23 with a 3.96 GPA. Her graduation photos and post are forthcoming. 

you can be whatever you want to beWhile at her Hooding Ceremony Friday night we were blessed to hear some of her professors speak giving the charge to the Master Degree graduates to move forward in faith as they begin new chapters in their lives and careers. 

My favorite talk was about, " You don't know what you're talking about." I believe it is a talk we all need to hear. We are so blessed to have our daughter in a Christian University where principles of the gospel are an essential part of learning. 

When you go about your daily life and plan for your future, setting your goals and creating your plans of actions you will be met with resistance and obstacles.  We know we can overcome resistance and obstacles but the one obstacle that is the most difficult to beat is that of self-doubt and sabatoging behavior. 

When satan whispers in your ear, " You can't do this.", "You are not good enought", "You are not worthy to reach this goal.", "You are not going to make it.", "You are stupid, crazy, fat, ugly...... or whatever word you want to put there." 

Stop right where you are and say: 

"You Don't Know What You Are Talking About!"

Because God does not say those things to you. God knows you can be all that he designed you to be. You can climb any mountain, you can reach any shore.  You can do anything that you set your heart and mind to do with faith and steadfast believe in God. God is by your side. God will not leave you nor will he desert you. 

Today I am writing those words on an index card and keeping it with me. When I begin to see myself freeze up in fear or start to sabotoge my successes I will take out that card and say, "You don't know what you're talking about." I encourage you to do the same right now

Hi Katerina,

I really enjoyed your post and totally agree with you. The index card is a good idea. I think your faith in God will keep you on the right track.


Congrats on your daughter's great accomplishments. My daughter has 2 more years of law school so I just keep my fingers crossed it goes smoothly.

Thank you so much for sharing and writing a wonderful post.  We are always the hardest on ourselves and self-doubt can play such a devasting role in our lives.  I like the words "you don't know what you are talking about" and honestly will work on remembering them.  I have the words "Faith is trusting what you cannot see" taped to my computer monitor to remind me each and every day of what sometimes I forget to remember.

That is taking a rather negative type comment and using it for good.  So when I have defeating thoughts, I can tell myself that I do not know what I am talking about.  Brilliant!
