Don't Underestimate Your Greatness

There is a sad tendency in some of us to underestimate justhow powerful we are. Just how much greatness lies insideeach and every one of us - just waiting to get out. Thereality is if you knew just how special you were - and howmuch greatness went into making you the unique you that youare I'm convinced you'd immediately know that nothing cantruly keep you from achieving that which you want in your life.
The journey is not always an easy one - very little oflasting or true value is first paved with an easy road. Infact we often find it is during those very times we believedto be insurmountable that are often most responsible for ourgaining the skills it took to reach our eventual success.
What I'm suggesting is that the skills it takes to becomethat which we desire to be are learned most often throughtimes of hardship or unrest. Certainly the good times andstudy in self-improvement plays a part, but don't discountthe importance of life's challenges either. In the end allparts of our life can be valuable teachers. Provided we'rewilling to accept them as such.
We need only accept that each event - positive or negativecan hold in it an opportunity to be made better for havingexperienced it. Now that's certainly not to say that we willfind joy in each and every one of life's events - certainlynot the negative ones anyway.
However, I believe it is worthwhile to look for the lessonsthat exist in both the good and bad in our lives. Beingcareful not to dwell on the negative. Remember, there is ahuge difference between dwelling on - and simply learningfrom and moving past something.
It's your life, LIVE BIG!
