“You were born with wings. Why prefer to crawl through life.”Rumi

You have the power to change your life. Why are you not using it? What are you waiting for? When are you going to use it? Remember, if you don’t use your power to change your life, your life will not change.

You were not born to crawl; you were born to fly. The question is, “Are you crawling or flying? If you are flying, keep flying higher and higher. But if you haven’t started flying, when are you going to make the decision to start flying? It is not easy, but it is doable. You can do it.

You are not here on earth to settle for less; you are here to settle for more. But you can’t have more if you don’t think you can have more. Because your thoughts will attract what you think about into your life. To be great, you must think great thoughts. According to Christian D. Larson, “Before you can have greater success you must become a greater man.” Great attracts great. So if you want to be great, think great thoughts. Do great things. Take action. Don’t sit back and wait for people to come and help you. They won’t come. You must stand up and walk, and walk, and walk, and keep walking.

“Before you can have greater success you must become a greater man.”-

You Cannot Grow Yourself Without Stretching Yourself

“Stretching always requires change.”

John C. Maxwell

Stretch yourself. You cannot grow yourself without stretching yourself. When you stretch yourself, when you put yourself through an uncomfortable situation, when you do what others are not doing, when you push yourself beyond your normal range, you will grow, you will succeed.

People don’t grow because they don’t want to be uncomfortable. They don’t want to stretch themselves. They want to be safe and comfortable. Remember, no one can grow without leaving where they are, no one can grow without changing how they think, no one can grow without doing the unusual things, no one can grow without taking risks, and no one can grow without stretching his or herself.

“No one can grow without changing how they think.”

If you want to grow, make yourself a lifelong learner. Be a curious person. Be willing to go the extra mile, and don’t be afraid to walk it alone. Stretching is not comfortable, but the fruit is comfortable.

“You will either step forward into growth, or you will step backward into safety.”

Abraham Maslow

If you are not growing, you are dying. If you are not growing, you are shrinking. If you are not growing, you are reducing. If you are not growing, you are declining. If you want real growth in your life, stretch yourself. Do what people say that you cannot do. Push yourself beyond your safety zone. If you do that, growth is within your reach.
