At the heart of every living thing is the quest for survival. The desire of every living being is to succeed. For those with the Rat- race mentality, it's a longing to just get by. For Athletes, life is a competition. For the heady, it's the survival of the fittest. For procrastinators, life is an un-ending opportunity, they can start anytime. For Clergies, it's about doing the will of God. For Actors and Actresses, life is like a movie you write, Act and determine it's End all by yourself. For Politicians, life is a Game, you play your Heart out when it's your turn. While for Leaders, it's an opportunity to help make the world a better place for people through people.
What is your opinion about life? that will determine if you will make a difference or not.
A critical view of life helps you accept the fact that you need to make a difference, irrespective
of what you do, as long as it's for the good of people and the world at large.
Here Are A Few Tips On How To Make A Difference
- PURPOSE: Purpose is the reason you are alive. And it can keep you alive when you find it out. Vision is the ability to see and pursue it. Setting Goals with dead-lines, helps you reach it. Passion and discipline are the Gas that helps you not stop half-way.
- PURITY: There must be a genuine evaluation and a purity check for every purpose. If your purpose is a duplicate of another person's own, pretty soon you'll be chasing something else. You must make sure your purpose is pure and sincere. It must emerge from your heart and not your head.
- PURSUIT: The pursuit of every worthwhile purpose is a worthwhile endeavor.The world is the way it is because many people only stop at the discovery of purpose, they don't pursue to posses and accomplish it. The discovery of your purpose might make you happy, pursuing it might bring temporary fulfillment, but only it's accomplishment will bring ultimate fulfillment and posterity.
- PERSISTENCE: Staying at your purpose helps you develop character and patience to reach the end. As a Rule in Leadership; what ever you're building must not end with you. Reaching your end should not mean the end of the Organization. If what you are building is a structure, your end should mean the introduction of a better face. You must continuously evaluate the process, checkmate unproductive projects, develop new strategies, and carry out timely implementation. Persistence is very key if you must reach the Harvest.
-PEOPLE: All the four Tips above are very crucial to you if you want to make a difference. But it is very imperative to know that to make a difference, you need people. Why? very simple; no one can succeed alone. Every human being is a part of something whole. We are suppose to compliment ourselves. You get more out of life if you're sincere about your need for people in the pursuit of purpose. When you manipulate and use people, you truncate your Purpose, thwart your Vision, and Sabotage your Personality. When you help people, you help yourself. and when you let people help you, you help them help themselves.
By and large, making a difference doesn't begin with Big things, it starts with small things. It cannot happen in Big places until it has happened in the villages of life.
Keep your eyes where you are going, but be concerned about where you are.
Make a difference TODAY.
