Do You Have The Guts For Greatness?

Do You Have The Guts For Greatness?

What have you changed, chiseled or chosen to help get your greatness unfrozen?

          We discover our limits when we prohibit others attempts to help because we don't believe in ourselves. Unless we give others permission to push us, life will disgust no matter how much we say we want change.

          The proof is in our willingness to be challenged, chastened, if need be. Unfortunately, however, most of us won't endure screaming to accomplish what we're dreaming. Our talk is tight but our walk is tender.

          Else we wouldn't surrender to blood, blows or circumstances. That's the difference between average and greatness regardless of our statements. Real greatness transcends statements. It also reveals weakness. Rightly used, weakness inspires will to renew itself until it overcomes what undermines our efforts to excel.

          In this regard, many of us lack compelling reasons to reject the reasons we give for why we give up on our greatness. We are rich in techniques yet lacking in tenacity. Yet guts are the last check greatness makes before it takes us where we envision. Combined with techniques, we takeoff to where we never imagined!
