This is a video I recorded because quite frankly I’m hearing way to many people and places discussing people’s achievements & the level of success they’ve reached in a negative light. Rather than celebrating the accomplishments of others there are those folks who are attempting to make it appear as though these individuals are somehow undeserving of the rewards that life has given them.
Please understand that I am NOT talking about the examples where “wealth or success” was achieved from having ripped off or gamed the system in any way. Though no matter what the media, politicians and other sources would lead you to believe, in most cases those instances are actually few and far between.
In reality, most people who have achieved success in their endeavors has occurred as the result of a lot of hard work and the willingness to set out in spite of any perceived risk and make things happen.
As I mention in the video it’s a slippery slope when we buy into the idea that some are trying to sell us — that somehow others are undeserving of the success they’ve attained. The reason it’s dangerous is that ultimately it deludes our own ability to believe in the power of our own dreams. It limits our ability to set out with the knowing that we to can achieve our own definition of greatness.
So watch the video — and feel free to share your thoughts in the comments if you’d like (and share it with others who might benefit from it as well). Most of all the next time you hear someone talking in the ways mentioned above don’t simply accept it as the truth. Think about how it could actually be programming you in a way that could be detrimental to your believing you are capable of achieving your dreams. Disagree with what those so called experts are saying and tune them out!
Friend, you’re worth it, and your dreams are worth it!
It’s your life, LIVE BIG! Josh Hinds :-)
