Steve Bow, with Metropolitan Life, years ago said that, “God’s gift to us is more talent and ability than we’ll ever hope to use in our lifetime. Our gift to God is to develop as much of that talent and ability as we can in this lifetime.”
We hardly use a fraction of the talent, ability and power which we are endowed with. Unfortunately, we always think what is achievable and then fall short of it. We are limited by our thoughts, our ambition and by ourselves. And we blame our circumstances for everything.
Let me give you an example of Helen Keller. She was born deaf, mute and blind. She could have succumbed to her situation and no one would have blamed her. But what did she do? She rose way beyond the reality. She realized that reality is but her thoughts. And the rest is history. When you read about the great discoverers in the history of mankind, you would see that most have gone beyond the trodden path. Many have undergone hardships and deprivation, I agree. But they have succeeded.
Here we are, with no such lofty ambitions. Many of us merely want a nice home or a big sedan. And what is it we discover? We are unable to covert even these small desires into reality.
The reason why we are unable to succeed is because we remain under the influence of what is possible. Again, if Helen Keller had thought what was possible, she would have been a failure. Neil Armstrong would never have conquered Everest if he had looked for precedence.
So what do we learn from these great people? That we are limited by our thoughts. We can only reach the heights we set ourselves to climb. The law of attraction is all about this. Nothing is ever achieved unless we plan to achieve it. The higher we climb, the nearer we are to the sky. Each step towards our personal Everest is a step closer to our goal. And the universe connives to help. You will be surprised how unknown people will come forward to help, circumstances would be created and matter would move to guide you on your way. This is sheer magic at its best.
