The hallmark of greatness.

For every great height you attain in life there is a price to pay or a price that must have been paid. No one wakes up in the morning and sees themselves up to where they have been longing to be. It is not enough to wish or desire greatness, but there has to be a hallmark that must be shown for you to have deserved such greatness or success.

It is however important to know that when we talk about greatness or successes, or you having a hallmark of it all, it isn’t something distinguished for a different kind of people, it is not a function or factor of class, age, background, or color. Your current status has got nothing to do with you showing or exhibiting the hallmark of greatness.

A lot of times I have found and seen people just desiring and aspiring to be great without showing any trait or hallmark of it. To be great or successful a hallmark must be shown or known about you. It must be evident for you and people around you to see and know you for who you are and for your desires and aspirations. A hallmark distinguishes you from all other persons, subjects, opinions, and beliefs in your environment and community at large. I am sure you know it is easy to spot a great and successful person still in the incubation stage. These stages of life are the most painstaking, where you work from time to time in other to see your dreams and goals achieved and visible. These are times where you have only gotten a hallmark for just one thing, and that's you doing all you have to do in other to see your goals materialize.

The hallmark of greatness is something everyone desires but just a few are willing to pay the price of seeing it achieved, only a few people are willing to take the chances and have that hallmark imprinted right in their heads, and skins. These few success-oriented people are willing to devote their time, energy, and resources to see that they have achieved as well as gotten to that great height they have always wished for. Remember it is for everybody, but then just a few are ready to pay the price.

Traits and habits must be formed and cultivated time after time, consistency must come into play at the time, self-discipline as well as got a bigfoot in this, and above all self-determination is a must.

You can be great regardless of who you are and where you are from just like I said earlier, but the big question that turns away a lot of people is, are you ready to pay the price? Are you willing to take sleepness nights to see that great dream, and goals of your achieved and fulfilled? If you can answer the question with a yes, that's a big thumbs up because you are now on the path of having imprinted in you the hallmark of greatness.

we really cannot talk about greatness without acknowledging the great men and women that had passed through this planet earth. The likes of Martin Luther King, Winston Churchill, Nelson Mandela of South Africa, Dr. Dora AKunyili of Nigeria, Prof. Ngozi Okonjo Iweala of the World trade organization (W.T.O), and many more wonderful and exceptional great leaders the world have had.

Your name and my name can be added to this next list of great individuals, and that can only be done if you embrace the hallmark of greatness and choose to pay the price to be at the top.

The hallmark of greatness is for everyone to embrace.
