There is greatness inside everyone of us, but we must first understand that we have to choose to be great.
Greatness comes from the determination to do incredible things. It all begins with having a dream and the willingness to be the best at what we do.
There is incredible potential for greatness within all of us. The decision is completely up to us to accomplish extraordinary things. It all starts with a burning desire to achieve great success.
The truth is, most people choose to be average. When you really think about average, it’s just as close to the bottom as it is to the top. You are capable of something better than mediocrity.
Most people look at those that have achieved greatness as either lucky or just gifted. While there may be some luck involved, and certainly everyone has gifts and talents, the truth is greatness requires hard and determination to achieve. If you truly want to be the best, you have to make that commitment to plant the seeds of greatness now and you will reap the harvest later.
It’s important to believe that you can be a top performer and accomplish great things. You must have the expectations of yourself first before you can do great things. Never limit yourself. You can go as far as you believe. In order to live a life of excellence, you must think thoughts of excellence.
Once you have chosen greatness in whatever you are doing, the next step is to take action. In order to be the best at something, it is going to take hard work over a long period of time. When you look at top performers in business, music, or sports, everyone will speak of the hours, days, weeks, months, and years of hard work. Every one of them experienced struggles, but they worked hard, and they never gave up. They may have had some moments of doubt and thoughts of giving up, but they stayed focused on their goals and never quit.
Consistency is the key when it comes to achieving greatness. Your success journey will be tough, challenging and difficult along the way. This is so true, especially in the beginning. Never give up! You are going to improve each and every day. Make the commitment to work hard, stay focused and hungry and you will see your dreams come to fruition. There may be a day that you feel like throwing in the towel. DO NOT QUIT! You are one step closer to achieving your dreams, and I promise you that you do not want to live with regret because you quit. Stay strong and I guarantee that your future self will thank you.
Most people want their big dreams to be accomplished right away. They’re thinking is like going through a drive-through window looking for instant success. You can have success out of the gates, but for your big dreams to really come true, you must work hard consistently over a period of time. There are no secret formulas.
Remember, there is greatness within you. It is waiting to come out. Start right where you are and make that commitment today. Be patient and have faith. If you put in the effort and you never give up, you will achieve greatness. The time is going to go by anyway.
Greatness is waiting for you. Now go out there and get it!
