How To Create Your Own Miracles

by Bright Osadiaye, posted in Personal Development, Personal Growth

Life is not what you can predict. That is okay. But don’t let that stop you from appreciating your life. Don’t let that stop you from appreciating other people. And do not let that stop you from living your life.

Just because you can’t predict the future doesn’t mean you shouldn’t do anything about your future. It does not mean you should forget about your dreams.

You have got to do something. If you don’t prepare for tomorrow today, tomorrow is going to be empty.

If you are not busy doing the right things today, you are going to be busy living the pain of not doing enough.

Remember that regret lasts forever, but pain is temporary. Which one do you want to experience? Pain? Or regret?

You can prepare yourself for tomorrow by doing what is right today. For example, if you have a job interview tomorrow, instead of playing around, you get yourself to work.

Preparation is not going to do the interview for you, but it will help you get through some of the hurdles that you will face during the interview.

Whether you like it or not, if you want to win in life, if you want to get ahead in your own life, you must do the work.

Doing the work is not easy. But not doing the work is even harder than doing the work. When you do the work, you don’t have to worry about what is going to happen in the future. You are free to play. You are free to live your life.

Why is that? Because you can control the work, but you can’t control what the world is going to do with your work.

You can control your work, but you can’t control how people are going to react to your work. But doing the work is better than waiting for a miracle to happen.

Don’t wait for a miracle. Work your miracle. When you work, when you get your hands dirty, your miracle will come to you.

So, What are you doing to attract your miracle?

When We Are Different

What does it really mean to be different? What are we learning from our similarities?

What are we learning from our differences? Are we learning anything from our similarities?

Remember, life is bigger than you. Life is bigger than me. Life is bigger than wealth. No matter who you are, life is bigger than. No matter how smart you are, life is still bigger than you. No matter what you have, life is bigger than you.

We are not created the same. We are created to be different. And we are not going to be the same, like it or not.

When you try to be who you are not, you are not developing yourself. Instead, you are trying to live your life like others. When you are not you, you can never change what is not working for you.

How can you change what you don’t know? Think about that.

If you want to expand your life, you must get out of your small box. You must explore the world around you. Because the world around you is bigger than you.

The world is bigger than yourself. You need other people. To do that really well, when you meet people, don’t focus on where you are similar. Instead, focus on where you are different. Explore what you thought you know about them. You will learn a lot when you respectfully focus on knowing more about other people.

You will learn a lot when you are doing it from your heart, when you are doing it in order to know what you don’t know, and when you are doing it to make yourself vulnerable.

Yes, it takes courage to know other people, to admit what we don’t know.

Differences are good. Similarities are also good. But if you want to know yourself, you must first understand the world around you. You must first understand the people around you.

Don’t focus on where they are weak. Instead, focus on what they can do to make the world a better place.

Remember,

people grow when they are respected, when they are cared for, when they are positioned for greatness, when they are challenged, when they are who they are, and when they are part of something bigger than themselves.
