BEGIRN WHERE YOU ARE!

Henry Ward once advised that we need to hold yourself responsible to a higher standard than anyone else expects of us. Never ever excuse yourself. Mason is of the opinion that, opportunity is always where you are, never where you were. You need to start with what you have, and not with what you don’t have.

To get anywhere you must launch out for somewhere, or you will get nowhere. Hamilton advised that, the question for each man to settle is not what he would do if he had the means, time, influence and education advantages, but what he will do with the things he has. I am of the opinions that, God will always give us an ability to create what we need from something that is already here. We have to begin from where we are by utilizing or using maximally what we have at hand.

Each person tends to either underrate or overrate that which they do not possess. Howe said that, people are always neglecting something they can do and trying to do something they can’t do. Roosevelt added by saying, do what you can, with what you have, where you are. The best way to learn anything thoroughly is by starting at the bottom. Do what you can Now, don’t wait for tomorrow. Successful people accomplish more than other because they go ahead and do it before they are ready.

Remember, almost everything comes from almost nothing. So, do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not, but remember that what you now have was once among the things only hoped for. Murdock said that, whatever God has already given to you will create anything else He has promised to you.
The truth is, you can’t know what you can do until you try. The most important thing about reaching your dream is starting right where you are.

I would summarize it with the words of Edward Hail who said, “I cannot do everything, but I still can do something, and because I cannot do everything, I will not refuse to do the something I can do” what are you doing with yourself today? That’s your FUTURE!
