Have you discovered who you want to be?
Have you decided where you're going?
Have you figured out what you want to be known for?
Stop waiting for things to happen. A passive approach towards life will limit you from greatness. Winners take deliberate steps to actualize their dreams.
We are created with the capacity to imagine our destination and make them happen.
If you've decided who you want to be? Are you still on course or have you gone off course
I was inspired by the success story of Jessie Owens. In 1936, Jessie Owens came back from the Olympic games as the fastest man in the world.
He was asked by the press,"How did you do it" Jessie? Four gold medals and became the fastest man in the world?
He answered it all began when I was a kid back in junior high school. My coach got us together and made a speech I've never forgotten.
The summary of what he said was "you can pretty well become whatever you make up your mind to be" As a junior high kid. I looked at my coach and shouted, I've decided what I want to be. The fastest man in the world.
And my coach looked at me, a skinny, tinny and scrawny black boy and said Jessie, that's a great dream. There's only one problem with your dream Jessie. What's that coach?
Dreams have a way of floating high in the sky. They just float up there like clouds. Dreams never become realities unless you've the courage to build a ladder to them.
How do you build a ladder to a dream coach? Well Jessie, he said, you build it ONE STEP at a time.
Its your turn to decide who you want to be and take steps daily towards your dreams.
Friend, I believe in your dream. Do something about it now, today and daily. The world is waiting for you.
The top is your place.
You will get there.
Be empowered to succeed.
