I was giving a talk yesterday to the State House Girls Secondary School and I shared with them the 7 Powers which I believe each human being who has walked or is walking on this lovely and unique planet of our has flowing in his or her life veins. The first two are listed below. The rest are on the way...
1. Power to Create and Re-Create
It is in each one of us to create our own world. The question is, do you believe so? Do you believe that where you come from or whatever circumstances surround you or the physical challenges you have are not excuses for a life of mediocrity? Destiny is choice and not fate. Emerson said, “What lies behind us and what lies in front of us pales in comparison to what lies within us.” Whatever mistakes may have happened in the past, you have the power to re-create. Don't let your past lie in the future, that is not where it belongs. Winston Churchill said it so well, "Sure I am that this day we are masters of our fate, that the task which has been set before us is not above our strengths; that its pangs and toils are not beyond my endurance. As long as we have faith in our own cause and an unconquerable will to win, victory will not be denied us." Need I say more?
2. Power to Make Your Vision Real
The quality of your life ultimately boils down to the quality of your thoughts. You have the power to vision greatness and make it real in your daily life and you have the power to visualize failure and prove it as you live your days. The beliefs we choose to fill our mind ultimately manifest themselves in our life. The catch is, we have the power to choose our beliefs. We can choose beliefs that elevate us to MasterClass or we can choose those beliefs that leave us frustrated, dissatisfied and empty. What do you choose to believe?
