“Success is knowing your purpose in life growing to reach your maximum potential and sowing seeds that benefit others.” ~ John Maxwell
Each creation is formed with a reason by its creator. There is a reason why a car was manufactured. There is a reason why a light bulb was invented. There is a reason behind the creation of water, land and sky with the living creatures that occupy them.
Each human being was born for a reason. The Creator designed each one of us for a specific assignment on earth. He placed a seed within each one of us, that when placed in adequate environment, it will begin to germinate and manifest into a productive tree.
Looking at a mastered seed, it seems insignificant, small and vulnerable, but within it lies a great tree. A tree that will produce more generations of seeds. Seeds that will be passed on and on to different areas or even seasons.
Why are you here? What is your mission? What are your convictions? What is your passion? What are you good at? How are you working on fulfilling your assignment? When you die, what will those around you remember you for?
Take a moment. Invest time in knowing yourself. Get to know your purpose. Develop your purpose. Your job can never give you purpose, but your purpose when cultivated, nurtured and developed has the potential to manifest into revenue.
You were born to serve the people around you. Therefore, your growth and development is not for competition, selfish desires or to prove anyone wrong, but to contribute towards the positive transformation in your community.
