			San Diego My name is name OB
Robert. And my new book is
		
00:00:04 --> 00:00:10
			entitled show up a motivational
message for Muslim women and men
		
00:00:10 --> 00:00:13
			who pick up the book. And the
reason I wrote this book is that
		
00:00:13 --> 00:00:19
			every single one of us has the
choice to be a victim or a hero of
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:23
			our own life story. And in this
book, I share with you the six
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:27
			steps that I have discovered, that
allow me to show up on a day to
		
00:00:27 --> 00:00:30
			day basis as the hero of my life
story, no matter what is
		
00:00:30 --> 00:00:35
			happening. So in today's times,
when there's so much uncertainty,
		
00:00:35 --> 00:00:40
			so much fear, so much anxiety
about the future, there is no
		
00:00:40 --> 00:00:45
			better time to make a decision to
show up fully for your life. A lot
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:48
			of people asked me, you know, what
does showing up look like? What
		
00:00:48 --> 00:00:52
			does it even mean? To show up, I'd
like to share with you a little
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:57
			bit about what I say in the book,
to show up is to be present mind
		
00:00:57 --> 00:01:03
			and body, to take responsibility
to take ownership to bring your
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:07
			true self to whatever role you are
called on to play with all your
		
00:01:07 --> 00:01:12
			imperfections and vulnerability in
tow. It is to recommit to your
		
00:01:12 --> 00:01:17
			life and your purpose. It is to
perform the role you are created
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:23
			to fulfill to do the work you were
put here to do. I define showing
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:29
			up as an action and an attitude.
So I've got a question for you. Do
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:34
			you think you're showing up as
your full self every day? And if
		
00:01:34 --> 00:01:38
			not, are you ready to change? Let
us know in the comments how you
		
00:01:38 --> 00:01:42
			feel that you could be showing up
better. And I pray in sha Allah
		
00:01:42 --> 00:01:46
			that this book and this
conversation will open your mind
		
00:01:46 --> 00:01:50
			to ways in which you could be
living more fully more boldly as
		
00:01:50 --> 00:01:52
			the hero of your life story today.
