Just wanted to mention to everyone out there who may have any doubts about things in their lives, or who may find that certain things are difficult or unachievable...with a lot of hard work and gumption, you can do it.
Take a look at Mr.Obama. He overcame some monumental obstacles, and became the leader of the most powerful country in the world. My message to you out there..keep working hard and busting your butts.
This is an historic event, so let's all savour it for just a moment.
Yours in health,
Sebastien

Savouring this moment is indeed important. However, the moment will be even more savoury if we take the time to truly (and critically) understand why we've overcome our obstacles.
ReplyDeletePresident Obama has faced adversity, and he is indeed a visionary. Today however, I was gobmsacked by the number of people who didn't understand why today is an important day. They were caught up in the moment -- this pause in time when we all stand collectively in the presence of greatness -- without truly appreciating the complex struggles and battles that had to be won along the way for this incredible man to come to this very special place. Hopping on the bandwagon of Obamamania is one thing -- but making sure we understand why days like today are historically significant is of even greater importance. Harnessing the momentum of significant moments in time like that which was witnessed by so many is one thing -- knowing WHY that momentum is there and where its power comes from is even more important. The same can be said for our own lives...
Catch the wave... hop on the bandwagon... whatever you call it, capitalize on this moment in time when all of us should take pause to think about the ways in which we too, can achieve our own individual greatness. Just know that in so doing, ensuring that this new drive is strongly anchored in the place within each of us where heart and intellect collide to spark the momentum and commitment for change; that is find the true reason why we need to change, not just because it's cool and everyone else is doing it. That assurance will form the unshakeable foundation for success.
Now that's savoury! Great comment Chris, you've captured the 'moment', and I hope everyone out there takes a chance to digest this historic event. Many thanks!
