Rules were meant to be broken! Harriet Tubman embodies confidence and the spirit of breaking rules for the greater good. Born into slavery, Tubman escaped and subsequently made some 13 missions to rescue about 70 enslaved people using the network of safe houses known as the Underground Railroad. She defied the laws of her time to lead others to freedom. We're celebrating Tubman for never folding under pressure, even when the stakes are high. ♥️

Tilt happens at the poker table and your career. The good news? It isn’t permanent—it’s a skill you can learn to manage. In poker, that means staying calm under pressure, recognizing when you’re on tilt, and resetting your mindset to make rational, strategic decisions. These same techniques apply to everyday life, helping you keep cool in tough conversations, high-stakes meetings, or unexpected challenges. How do you deal with tilt?

Sometimes, bluffing is all you need to WIN that day. Channel your inner Rihana this week and step into rooms with confidence- even if you have to bluff through it. "Faking it till you make it" can actually lead to real self-assurance. Harvard University found that adopting confident body postures, even when we're not feeling self-assured, can raise testosterone levels and reduce cortisol, leading to increased feelings of confidence. These changes can trick your brain into believing in your own capabilities! By consistently practicing this, you are strengthening your self-esteem and resilience. Start practicing your bluffing skills and strengthen confidence in the daily community games on the Poker Power app. #MondayMotivation Repost: E! News
