You have the capacity to be or do anything you put your mind to.  In other words, high goals are within your reach.  Yes, you have the ability – but I know you are aware that it takes more than that.  Understanding that you have the potential for greatness comes with a certain responsibility.  It’s the responsibility to act.  You must do something, you know that you should - but it often does not happen.  Life makes it easy to procrastinate because there are a thousand other things that we can occupy ourselves with, instead of goals that are essential to our upward mobility.  There are people that we hang around with who are very satisfied with where they are.  I’m not knocking that completely, but life is short and there are so many things that we can do to improve our life, our families, and support charities.  There are people around the way that we can help.  That seems to be a more significant objective than I’ll stay here, right here forever….

If you are not working toward reaching the fullness of your capacity, then you also know that you are missing the mark.  You could hang with your “comfortable, I’m fine being where I am” friend, but you will never quite feel that same level of comfort - that is not where you belong.  When much is given, much is expected.  If you are not going to be the motivator for yourself and your friend, then you need to add another friend to your circle Diva.  Your new friend has to be someone who has their sights set on higher goals.  My father use to always say, “You’re known by the company you keep.”  I know that to be true.  I’ll go a step further to say, the company you keep can either influence you to be better or encourage you to be stagnant.


It is so very important to choose people in your inner circle who are movers and shakers.  You can’t afford to weigh yourself down with people who are not going anywhere and therefore want you to do the same.   A good friend will motivate you and encourage you to be your best self and to strive for higher heights.  Seek out these guys, but in the meantime, encourage yourself and get ready to take full advantage of the God given capacity you have.  Put your whole heart in it and push your capacity to the limit.

Hey don't be shy, follow or comment.  I love hearing from you.
