THE GREATNESS IN ME

Have you ever had a door of opportunity slammed in your face? A job application that you did not get; a friendship or relationship that didn’t go through; a proposal where the answer was no. you know what, I’ve had that too.
Sure, these things happen when you are in pursuit of something, when you want something better than the status quo. Just make sure you don’t focus on the closed door. Crawl through a window or tear down a hole in the roof just to find a way forward. Step back and do an assessment. What happened? What didn’t you do? What did you discover about yourself? What do you need to do? Who must you become to move forward in your life?
Whatever you do …, don’t give up simply because it becomes challenging. Don’t expect life to make it easier for you to reach your goals. Make the decision to become a better person in order to accomplish your goals. Believe this – there will be other doors and more opportunities. Know that you will be stronger, wiser, more capable and better prepared when you take advantage of those closed doors, because everything that happens in life has even the littlest advantage attached to it. You just have to discover where that advantage lies and make the greatest use of it.
You have GREATNESS within you.
You are GREATER than what you currently are.
