Dream Big

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light not our darkness which frightens us. We ask ourselves: Who am I to be brilliant gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually who are we not to be? Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people wont Feel insecure around you. We were born to manifest the glory that is within us. It is not just within some of us; it is in everyone. And when we let our light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our fear, our presence automatically liberates others.

Nelson Mandela - 1994 Inaugural Address

Greetings brothers and sisters
Father Mandela has spoken words that too many people do not fully appreciate and that is: You manifest your expectations. Act as if, because when the mind believes - and not with just words but with your entire being - then the universe will conspire to aid you in your endeavours. But where do you gain your confidence and belief if you have none.

Let me shift your thinking and realign it with the mindset of winners and heroes.

The question I ask you is what do you have to lose?

What is the worst thing that can happen if you strive for excellence? If you pull out all the stops and excuses and make things happen?

Think about these two questions carefully because they are the platform from which you can soar to new heights.

This life we now enjoy is not a dress rehearsal for the main performance but the real thing. If you look throughout history the ones who dared to dream big dreams are the ones who changed not just their lives but the lives of many others. No matter what your goals are you need to approach them fearlessly knowing failure is just a part of the equation of success as your breath is to life.

Let me continue to nudge you in the right direction.

If you could not fail and were told by some higher power that you are a hundred percent certain of achieving your heart felt desires, what then would you strive for?

What would you do?

How would you dress?

What kind of contributions would you make to charities?

Remember you can't lose so be bold. Court failure even. Do something differently from the way you have been doing it for the last five or ten years. In fact there comes a time when the way we have been doing things no longer works, if it ever did. So change at least one unproductive behaviour a month and see how efficient and effective you become. Remember that avoiding failure inevitable means avoiding success. This is your hearts desire and nothing should sway you from its achievement. Dream big my brothers and sisters because a humble dream backed up with unrelenting faith can change the world

Peace
