Pass the Brick

"Accomplishments are the Bricks that are Placed
on the Framework of Potential."

Alism

Do you remember in grade school that student or person who seemed to have all the potential we wished we had ourselves?  They seemed to have everything going for them…talent, brains, and beauty.  They were “A Millionaire in the Making” – if you will. 

Yet years later, we then see them in a totally different space.  There seems to be a disproportionate difference between what we thought they would do and what they actually accomplished.  We then tend to think to ourselves, “Man, they had so much potential.”  Unfortunately, there was some disconnection between their inherent ability and their actual achieved output. 

By now you are probably thinking of a few people you know who have fallen into this category.  However, let’s first take a look in the mirror instead of staring out of the window.  As you reflect on your life, how do you answer the question, “Are you maximizing your potential?”  

Do you know we already possess the potential it takes for us to “make it happen”?  Yet there are many for whom life seems plagued by the spirit of redundancy.  Far too many become stuck with just the framework of potential, hoping the bricks of accomplishment will somehow appear.  I am here to let you know that yes, YOU were born with potential and value already inside of you; however, now it’s time for you to tap into that God-given resource to produce the maximum YOU every day.  You can move from potential to visualization and ultimately actualization strictly by taking the daily bricks of accomplishment and placing them on the framework of potential.

How often do we hear “Someday”?  Well, when will “Someday” actually become “Today”?  My friend it takes just one step.  Are you ready?  Make a decision to start.  That’s it!  Choose to start.  “Start what?” you ask.  Start writing that book – Author.  Start singing, writing, or playing your songs – Musician.  Start acting – Actor or Actress.  Start living out the potential of your dreams.  Start where you are and with what you have because what you have is enough for the moment. When you do, you’ll find that creativity exists in the strangest surroundings.

Building a house does not happen overnight and neither does success.  They are both a process.  It is through the consistent application of bricks that the house is built. However, you’ve got to start somewhere and at some time with the first brick.  The Frame of your success is awaiting the next brick of accomplishment to aid in its fruition.  Why not grab one today?    

Aim High…
