How Great Are You?

“I’m going to show you how great I am.” –M. Ali

 

One key aspect of the lives of those who are remembered for being the most inspirational or the most powerful was the belief in themselves that anything and everything is within their grasp. Often we hit set-backs in life. We get drawn down by those who want to bring us to their level because they are too scared to climb out of hell themselves. Being lucky enough to be able to surround yourself with people who are nothing but motivating forces in your life would be an incredible blessing, however the reality is we are faced with challenging people every single day. How you chose to deal with these people is your choice – either support them on their way to the top, or have the courage to leave them because they are not helping you in your journey to greatness!

 

Some will spend so much time wanting to be someone else; following them on social media, buying the same clothes and mimicking their every move. Who are you trying to be? You, or someone else? Why be a copycat; even the best copycat in the world will never be an original! We sometimes focus so much on getting others to love us by focusing so much on other people that we never have a chance to figure out who we are. The challenge to spend time to ourselves, and not rely on others to make us powerful is something very few are strong enough to handle. There is only one way to the top of the ‘success’ you want in life, and that is to go through times of challenge and difficulty. Through these struggles we find out what we are made of, where we want to go and what we want to become. Life can hit you hard. How great are you? How do you want to be remembered by those closest to you? Chose to be powerful beyond measure – amazing things will come your way.
