If I handed you a check for $25,000, how would that make you feel?
How long could you hold onto it? or would that be your objective at all?
Don’t you owe it to yourself to be happy?
Don’t you owe it to yourself to buy some nice things that you have been putting off, because you just didn’t have the extra cash; clothes, fine dining, a huge flatscreen TV or maybe a new car?
These things would be great.
But how long would it take before the money dwindled down?
And now you’re back in the same old place you were before?
You owe it to yourself to be happy.
You could save the money. Put it in the bank. Rest assured that now you have a safe net to catch you if life throws you a curve.
Now you could experience happiness.
But wait. What if the economy crashes or someone, somehow finds a way to steal your money? How do you feel now?
How does the human heart go about finding a true wealth, a lasting safe haven, a peaceful feeling of having all that it desires? A pretty tall order, wouldn’t you agree?
How about this.
How about, a life of freedom without fear, a life of certainty without doubt, a life of abundance without depravity? How about you owe it to yourself to do your best, to achieve more than you think you can, to be more than you dreamed you could ever be?
How about… you have the ability to choose?
You have the ability to choose whatever and how much you will receive?
I believe… you have the right to choose.
To live beyond the material objects of pleasure, is your choice.
I believe that which brings true abundance are things like character, honesty, goodness
and things that bring lasting happiness.
A virtuous character, a kind heart, and a willingness to serve others are in my opinion
what makes a person great.
Value or riches, honor or treasures, selflessness or selfishness,
I believe the choice is yours.
Choose greatness.
Choose to become Great.
