GREATNESS: the quality or state of being great (as in size, skill, achievement, or power).
Many people have walked this earth as I write this book the last count, the population stands at or around (7.7 Billion as of 2019) (for further study visit the link at the end of this book (we may never know the exact amount). Out of the people who have walked on the earth (those who have come and are now gone). And yet there are still countless number of people walking around everyday who have not identified their GREATNESS and put that GREATNESS to good use. (HOPEFULLY, THIS BOOK WOULD HELP YOU TO DO SO). (EVERYONE NEEDS TO START SOMEWHERE) RIGHT? Hopefully, you are in
agreement/concur.
Some of the people I’m about to mention, according to your age group while you’re reading this book you may or may not be familiar with some of these names however, a quick click on google you can find out more about their life story. You will know these people are real, each one of them walked this earth, discovered their GREATNESS AND AS THEY SAY, ‘the rest is history”.
Michael Jeffery Jordan
Some say he’s the GREATEST who ever held a basketball. Now you may or may not agree that Michael is the GREATEST ever however, you would agree that his GREATNESS was on display for all to see, and witness.
Dale Earnhardt jr.
One of Nascar’s beloved stock car drivers. Who is (at the time of this book), still competes part time.
Jack Nicklaus the (Golfer)
Who does not know this guy, when you mention Golf Jack Nicklaus will always be somewhere in the conversation? Winner of 17 professional tournaments is just amazing, GREATNESS
Serena William’s
an American tennis player, some pundits say she is the best who have ever done it, I am not sure about that however, what I am sure about is this, Serena at an early age discovered, as she grew, identified, cultivated, and unleashed that greatness on the inside of her.
And so many others.
Ask yourself what do all these individuals have in common/alike? What would be your answer? One thing all these people have in common/alike? Yes, they all did one particular thing/something better or at a higher level than others. One simply answers. They all identified that seed(s) of GREATNESS WITHIN THEM.
Some of them earlier than others nonetheless, each individual identified/discovered, cultivated, and unleased their GREATNESS into society and help society be a better place while they lived or yet live.
The second thing they all had in common was a hard work ethic. You will not achieve your full potential being LAZY. You must work hard.
See your GREATNESS is not about being recognized, applauded or how many trophies (those things are o.k. in its proper place) however, your GREATNESS is bigger than just you. Your GREATNESS is given to you to bring change to your surroundings, and in general overall as well as to yourself and family (children, parents, and siblings).
Also, your seeds of GREATNESS do not necessarily have to be someone else’s, but you do have seed (s) within you. You were born with seed (s) already planted into your own personal D.N.A. And it needs to be discovered by you.
From this day forward do the things that supports your GREATNESS (that one thing you do better than anything else in life). Do not waste your time on things or people that do not accommodate or benefit your GREATNESS. Time is of the essence, believe it/that.
