How many outstanding generalities do you know? How many outstanding people do you know with unique and distinctive characteristics? Don't be a living custard. Man is the only creation that refuses to be what he is. Don't look for a miracle. You are a miracle. Do not be awestruck by other people and try to copy them. Nobody can be you as efficiently and as effectively as you can. When you fully use the gifts you have, people call you gifted. One of the hardest things about climbing the ladder of success is getting through the crowd of copies at the bottom. You are a specialist. You are not created to be all things to all people. More than 90 percent of all flowers have either an unpleasant odor or none at all. Yet it is the ones with sweet fragrance that we most remember. Stand out! Too many people make cemeteries of their lives by burying their talents and gifts. It doesn't take a majority to make a change - it takes only a few determined individuals with a sound cause. You're the only one in all of creation who has your set of abilities. You're special...you're rare. And in all rarity there is great worth. While an original is always hard to find, he is easy to recognize. |
