You may be in a situation where your only consolation is to assume that, well it could have been worse. You know, sometimes we tend to misunderstand the "being content with ourselves" factor, that instead of aspiring for greatness we settle for just enough. But I believe in the God who gives more than enough. So it gets to the point where you must tell yourself, "enough is enough", in order to dare yourself to reach out for more. There are those people who would make you feel, oh! you just bought that house, why build another? or someone may just see your vision of going International with your business idea, as taking on too much of a risk?
Well, it takes courage really, to do the big things others just want to read about in history books. Coming to think of it, HISTORY is really about "someone's story". So why not make it your story? It takes strong hearts and minds that are purpose-driven to achieve what is seemingly unachievable to the mediocre mind. God gives us that supernatural ability to reach beyond the natural and do things just a little bit differently; but even he has given us the free will to choose. You just may be wishing you had the ability to create something new. And why not? You could stand the chance of being so creative that you employ others to be able to fend for themselves, rather than being dependent on you.
I think it's just time to stop feeling sorry that we want the best there is to have in life, and stop beating ourselves down just so we can be mediocre and not offend anyone. If you have that desire to reach for the stars, by all means do. But just be sure, you're connecting to the source that never runs dry. Staying connected to our creator makes us do wonderful things just like he does. God didn't create us to be timid nor live mediocre lives; he desires for us to be humble but that does not mean belittling ourselves.
The fact that some people just love to be taken care of, rather than take care of others, doesn't mean everyone else must be like them. God actually wants us to be strong and courageous; believing in ourselves and trusting in him to give us the power and ability to be all that we hope to be and even more! So the next time someone tries to tell you to be content with what you have? Think carefully and be sure you've given off your very best in life, and that's all that you could possibly achieve. If that's not the case, then it is time to let that inner scream out and say, "enough is enough, I could do better than this". Well whatever situation you're in right now, start saying out loud, "Enough Is Enough, I can advance and reach out for more, so help me God".
Stay motivated, Be inspired!
