The Power of Believing in Your Greatness

As Bob Proctor once said, "If you can see it in your mind, you can hold it in your hand."

It all begins with one thought: a clear understanding of the personal power we have in writing your own stories and in turning the unthinkable into our daily realities.

Oftentimes we get so caught up with the idea of instant gratification that we forget about the value that exists in the journey towards the life of our dreams. A journey which not only fuels personal growth (as every experience allows us to learn more about who are as individuals), but also inches us closer to our ultimate goals and aspirations. We also tend to forget about how powerful we are and the incredible things we can accomplish by believing in our potential.

I have discovered though, that life tends to present us with unforeseen experiences ("challenges" as some may say) that will push us beyond our comfort zone and will truly test our determination to achieving something great. Something that will pave the way for others. Something that is way bigger than you or me. Something that will leave a legacy.

How can you remain motivated through these challenges you may ask? Remember that every challenge is temporary, and your current adversities are only preparing you for the endless success that is heading your way. Envisioning your success before it is even tangible and having faith in your progress along the way, will give you the tools to embark on new experiences with full confidence that you will come out on top. Furthermore, it will allow you to live in the moment and embrace every situation with an open mind rather than urging you to rush to the next moment.

Therefore, I encourage you to remain patient, have faith in your vision, trust the process, and believe in your ability to reach the unthinkable. There's greatness within you, remember that!

Friendship. It's defined as the state of being attached to another person by feelings of affection or personal regard, but what really is friendship? Is it that occasional hallway talk with that one person who always manages to cheer you up? Is it that relationship you have with someone where they can be gone for a long period of time, but when they come back, it's like they never left? Is it spending every waking hour with someone, and knowing every detail about their life? Is it the relationship that's filled with fighting, but filled with even more resolution? I've learned that it's all of these things, and every friendship is different. It's a beautifully dysfunctional mess that should always be cherished and never be taken for granted.

I've known you your entire life. More than likely I held you in the first three days of it and at least one of us cried. Cousins are truly one of the best things in the world and while sometimes I complain about how many people crowd Grandma's living room on Christmas Eve, I wouldn't trade you all anything.

You are my best friends, the only people who can understand what it's like on Thanksgiving, and you are the spunkiest people I have ever met. But you as so so young, most of you are just now starting your adventures in the public education system. I mean, I'm so very young too. I'm not married, I don't have children, heck, I just started my adult life, but I do want to give you what little advice I have. My dears, these are the things I want you to know.
