A young man loved to work on automobiles. They were in their infancy but he was good at it and decided he would form his own automobile manufacturing corporation. He had a dream and he gave it his all, and he failed. Went bankrupt. Found himself back at ground zero.
So what did he do? What anyone who has determination and discipline does, he didn’t waste his time. He stuck out his jaw, warmed up his dream and went for a second try. And succeeded, rather well, I think you will agree, for this man was Henry Ford.
Twenty-three publishers looked at the efforts of this writer and suggested he try something else for a living. You see, he wrote strange stories and drew strange pictures.
So what did he do?
What any determined writer does, he kept on writing. And
one day the twenty-fourth publisher took a chance on Theodor Geisel and
over 6 million copies of that first book have been sold over the years,
not counting all his other wonderful, imaginative books the world has
come to love. You see his pen name was Dr. Seuss.
But
it is not required that we climb the tallest mountain, or take the most
difficult course of study, or a set a record of any sort.
It is required that we set some goals; small, large or in between, and that we turn some good and godly dreams into deeds. That we take at least some of the time God has given us, and trim it with silver actions that shine.
“Where there is no vision, the people perish,” speaks Proverbs 29:18 (KJV)
Without a vision we perish…so prepare for a vision. Imagine yourself committed to a time-fulfilling accomplishment. Keep
your eyes open to recognize when an opportunity presents itself, then
chose to do it, whatever it is, and believe you can do it. And then actually do it.
Follow through and follow up. Teddy Roosevelt said, “If I am going to fail, I am going to fail while daring.”
It’s called the pleasure of purpose. The satisfaction of knowing that you have sowed some seeds of deeds dreamed of and followed through on…
You don’t have to move a mountain but you can certainly raise a mound.
