The focus is on YOU
February 19th, 2010 // 7:51 am @ Tanmay // 6 Comments
This morning when I was praying, God gently put His hand on my head and lovingly said -
"My Son,
Those who wait for an opportunity never get it.
I have given you hands and head so that you can work hard, think, move ahead and create opportunities.
Just like a farmer sprinkles seeds across on the land, I have sprinkled opportunities around you.
But like a farmer, you have to work hard and long to seize those opportunities.
The road below your feet will never move unless YOU move.
A river never complains about the obstacles in the way. River creates a way because a river was made to flow.
Birds were made to fly and man was made to work.
If you lock yourself in a room, you will never experience sunlight. You have to open doors and windows of your room to let the sunlight in.
If you keep doors and windows of your mind closed, the light of knowledge will never come in.
Opportunities are like rays of sun. They are waiting outside for you to open up, work hard and embrace them.
The focus is on YOU. The fulcrum is on YOU.
Because YOU are the one who thinks, decides and exercises a choice.
Opportunities are everywhere. What are you doing to seize them?”
