ARE YOU TRULY WHAT YOU SAY YOU ARE?

ARE YOU TRULY WHAT YOU SAY YOU ARE?

Joshua 17 Amplified Bible (AMP)

¹⁴ The tribe of Joseph spoke to Joshua, saying, Why have you given [us] but one lot and one portion as an inheritance when [we] are a great [abundant] people, for until now the Lord has blessed [us]?

¹⁵ Joshua replied, If you are a great people, get up to the forest and clear ground for yourselves in the land of the Perizzites and the Rephaim, since the Ephraim hill country is too narrow for you.

The world in its own way has been able to accommodate people with different attitude and perception towards life. Some think they are great and use everything God has bestowed upon them to actualize this greatness and even to become greater; some think they are great and are afraid to make it happen; and the last set are those that think they have no greatness deposited in them and have little or no believe they can achieve great things.

One of the greatest lessons of life is that we are all responsible for the life we live, that is why it is very important you check and re-check those things you self-proclaim. If it is that you believe that you are born-great, good for you! But if it is that you always look down on yourself and you self-proclaim that you are a born-looser, it is time to exit that self-thought mode because you are designed to manifest greatness. IMAGINE what it would be like if you could begin seeing yourself in a new realm where you begin to achieve the unbelievable and soaring like eagle!

If you've long felt like you're destined for something bigger, better and more purposeful in your life, but you've been wondering how to tap into and unleash your inner greatness…

Here is what I know to be true...

If you are willing to start working on yourself, never give up on the pursuit of your dreams and make the most of the moments you've been given...You WILL accomplish extraordinary things in a very short amount of time. Your thoughts build your character, how you work in the world, how far you go mentally, physically, and spiritually. You are what you think, and all of your behaviors come from your thought.  Your inner thoughts will constantly be reflected in your outer conditions, because self-generated shifts in your life are constantly preceded by shifts in the way you think about something.

"You have to pretend you're 100% sure. You have to take action; you can't hesitate or hedge your bets. Anything less will condemn your efforts to failure. "
-- Andrew Grove, Intel co-founder

"The moment you commit and quit holding back, all sorts of unforeseen incidents, meetings and material assistance, will rise up to help you. The simple act of commitment is a powerful magnet for help."
-- Napoleon Hill, Pioneer of Personal Achievement Philosophy

"Follow your instincts. That's where true wisdom manifests itself. "
-- Oprah Winfrey, Talk Show Host

According to Eleanor Roosevelt, first lady "We must do That Which We think we cannot."  Everything is possible to them that believe, you just have to see the impossible becoming possible and keep going for all those things you have long desired to attain that coated itself with unattainable, unachievable, unexecutable, and unaccomplishable. I want you to know that your parents too were afraid when your mother was pregnant of you and all their prayers was that you make it to life successfully at the time of birth, Yes you made it! That was a huge success and you have remained on this planet till now. I want you to disappoint those that never believed in you and that dirty-spirit that haunts you with fear each time you cast your mind on something worthwhile and that has been limiting you all this while. I want you to know that nothing good come easy; it takes a Never-Take-No force and decision to make great things a reality. 

For no reason give listening hears to those who say to you that you can’t achieve whatsoever meaningful and worthwhile you attempt to do. I love the Chinese proverb, "The person who says it cannot be done should not interrupt the person doing it." Isn't it interesting that so many people who have never tried something are quick to tell you it can't be done?

This might sound too pushy but very true, only people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do. When you believe you can then you can, this is one thing you can’t eliminate or dodge on this planet where you co-exist.

Just like Charles Kettering, Inventor who says "High achievement always takes place in the framework of high expectation."

Your expectations in life determine greatly where you foresee yourself; what you can achieve; what becomes of you; and finally what life accounts of you after life on Earth.

There is something I will like to leave you to brood over and I hope you will pick something from it:

"If you go to work on your goals, your goals will go to work on you. If you go to work on your plan, your plan will go to work on you. Whatever good things we build end up building us."
--- Jim Rohn

"Circumstances may cause interruptions and delays, but never lose sight of your goal. Prepare yourself in every way you can by increasing your knowledge and adding to your experience, so that you can make the most of opportunity when it occurs."
~Mario Andretti
