"God did not put us here to fail"
It's about finding your personal dream and going after it with all you've got.
Shortly after my dad died I started looking for men to look up too. Not to replace my dad but to help fill a missing void. I put together a list of some of the most successful men I know. In doing so I learned a hard lesson! Not all successful men are Good men!! My father who made an average living was one of the best, wisest, and most caring men I've ever met.
It reminded me how shallow I can be. I was measuring success strictly on finances... When my missing dad was one of the most average financially men I know... and yet he lived one of the most successful lives I've seen. He did more with his means than most!!
There's a song right now by Miranda Lambert that has the line "I got lost in this old world and forgot who I am" I think it's a perfect description of me lately. I have dreams and passions that I've let slide recently for no good reason. I've had goals and boundaries that I've put aside or forgotten about.
This talk reminded me of those dreams. Most importantly it helped give me the desire to go back out there and work hard for my dreams! Ironically, it's by one of the richest men I've ever heard of... so maybe, I'm wrong again about wealthy successful people.
Hopefully, you'll love it!
