Sarah Hudson Pierce: If you want to  be great be a a servant

by David Specht

Zig Zigler, the famous motivational speaker,  said “if you help other people get what they want you can have everything you want.”

The magical, mystical power of belief is what it takes to move mountains — to make dreams come true — to have whatever we want out of life  

There is a force  at work in the universe that picks up — plugs into — connects with our spirits  — not only recognizing and appreciating our determination,  thus reaching out  and aiding, assisting and abetting our dreams into a reality!

I see this as God at work in the universe but its up to use to take that first  step.

Even the Bible teaches that if we have faith “as a grain of mustard” we can move mountains!

But it takes that rare faith — that first step — that undying belief to put that force into action.

The lack of will — verve — tenacity — that lackadaisical quality is not rewarded for very long if at all.

There are some things we have to do for ourselves.

It takes gutsy tenacity — of stepping out onto a limb — going to a jumping off place to set forces into motion on out  behalf.

Why this is true I’m yet unclear but I know it’s so.

It’s only been when I’ve taken a dare — gone out into the darkness with only a candle — that progress has been made.  It’s only when I’ve stepped   up onto the diving board of life — not looking back or to one side that great things have happened in my life.

But we do have to take that first step of faith or we will continue to wallow in our own misery — have our pity party unaware of the joy — the exhilaration — the ultimate high of doing that which produces tremendous fear — yet providing a glow — the radiance — the joy — the satisfaction of knowing that we’ve tried — and achieved at least some of our goals — that we’ve given life our best shot but we can’t do it alone nor would we want to. 

After all the Bible still teaches “that if we want to be great that we must   be a servant,” helping other people reach their goals.  There’s a magical, mystical power of belief that magnetically draws others to us when we do our best because our enthusiasm will be contagious.
