God said:
You may have said more than once:
“How different the world would be if I had some say over it!”
Here’s the rub, dear Sons and Daughters: You do have say. You and the world go hand in hand. Lift your Life, and you lift the world.
If you see yourself as a cog in the wheel, how are you rating yourself?
If you see yourself as helpless, what do you contribute?
How you see the world, despite what you may prefer, is pretty much how you see yourself. Of course, there can be exceptions at least on the surface, yet pretty much, this is the case. Accept more confidence in your ability to make a difference, and you will make more of a difference.
How does a child from the slums who has no shoes grow up to be a billionaire? You might say it was by chance. You might say he was lucky. Indeed! You might say he worked hard. Regardless, he had somewhere deep within himself a belief in himself and his ability to make something happen. He had the drive. He had the get-up-and-go.
Regardless, you can also ask: “What is so all-out important about becoming a billionaire?” Of course, this may well be the way many prove their inherent value to themselves. At the same time, this question may be asked about many avenues in Life. Teacher, student, cabinet-maker etc.
In the example of the pauper who became a prince, likely, the pauper knew what he wanted. He didn’t let the grass grow under his feet. He didn’t say that he had no power. He told himself that he had power. He achieved what he set out to achieve.
