You are just exactly what you make out of life. Whatever you put in; your act, your deed and words are value of what life will push to you at long run.
Carefully read this super story and learn great lesson of life.
It happened some time ago, I was in the audience listening to a Motivational Speaker.
The speaker got out his wallet and pulled out a N500 note.
Holding it up, he asked, "Who wants this N500 note?" Lots of hands went up, including mine.
A slow chorus began to build as people began to shout "Me!" "Me!" .
I began to wonder who the lucky one would the speaker choose. And I also, secretly wondered (I am sure others did too ), why would he simply want to give away N500?.
As the shouts of "I want it" grew louder, I noticed a young woman running down the aisle.
She ran up onto the stage, went up to the speaker, and grabbed the N500 note from his hand.
"Well done, young lady," said the speaker into the microphone.
The speaker simply said, "Most of us just sit and wait for good things to happen. That's of no use.
You've got to make things happen.
Make a move"
''Simply thinking about doing something is of no use and not good enough'.
Our lives are like that. We all see opportunities around us.
We all want the good things, but the problem is, we don't take action.
We all want the 500 naira notes on offer. But we don't make the move. We look at it longingly.
Get up, and do something about it.
Don't worry about what other people might think.
Take action.!!
2. Later, the speaker got another 500 naira note out and held it up for all to see.
I thought I knew what's up. But he just asked a simple question. "How much is this worth?" "Five Hundred naira!" the crowd yelled in unison.
"Right," said the speaker.
He then took the note and crumpled it into a ball and asked "How much is it worth now?" "Five Hundred naira!" screamed the audience.
He then threw the note on the ground, stamped all over it and picked up the note, then asked one more time: "And how much is it worth now?" "Five Hundred naira!" was the response.
"I want you to remember this," said the speaker.
"Just because someone crumples it, or stamps on it, the value of the note does not diminish.
"We should all be like the 500 naira note...
In our lives, there will be times when we feel crushed, stamped over, beaten.
But never let your self-worth diminish.
Just because someone chooses to crush you -- that doesn't change your worth one bit!
Don't allow your self-worth to diminish because someone says something nasty -- or does something dirty -- to you.
"Never let your self-worth diminish.
I hope, surely you have seen yourself clearly, where you are standing in the game of life for success.
Thanks
