Reflections
on Your Greatness
by
Michael Dalton Johnson
You
are great. You are far greater than you imagine.
You are a unique entity given the power to
create your own life. When you look outside yourself
for self-definition you are giving your power away. However,
when you understand and accept that you alone possess
the power to define yourself and your life, there are
dramatic changes. You will find new clarity, focus and confidence.
You'll also find that using this incredible gift is both
exhilarating and challenging.
You
are in charge. Think of your life as a movie.
You are the writer, director, producer and star. You choose
your co-stars and extras. Whether the movie is a smash
or a flop is in your hands.
Your thoughts determine your outcomes.
This is one of the great mysteries. There are a lot of theories
about this phenomenon but no one really knows how
it works. However, it does work and reveals the astonishing
power of your thoughts. If you think you are average,
you are. If you think you can't win, you won't. Conversely,
if you see yourself succeeding, you will. If you expect
great things to come to your life, they're on their way.
You bring others with you. Your courage and
confidence to examine your life and make changes will have
a profound effect on those around you. When you lift yourself
up, others are lifted up too.
Your life. Your responsibility. The
first and most important rule is to take responsibility
for everything that happens in your life. Following this rule puts
you in command. Winston Churchill said, "The
price of greatness is responsibility." While I'm
certain he was talking about fighting wars and leading
nations, his statement applies to your life as well.
You
have the power. Life will inevitably send you your
share of setbacks, problems, disappointments and losses. These
things are beyond your control. How you react to them is not. Listen
to the voice within you and realize you have a choice. You
have the greatness to persevere, to forgive, to smile, to
lift yourself and others up and to move on.
