Oh how the human spirit longs for greatness!

Remember, a time not so long ago, when the child within looked out into the world and saw nothing but a playground. It surely was a place, where everything was possible. Accomplishment was only constrained by one’s imagination. All dreams could become reality.

Family values and hard work were a normal part of life. Self esteem was something that could rarely be taken away. Self determination and perseverance was always expected to overcome adversity and lead to success. A magical time indeed!

There are those who profess these times are gone. Tow the line, follow the rules and don’t dare to be different. What a sad mantra to follow. Change is inevitable and the world, as a whole, is growing smaller. Economic conditions are reflective of activities within all countries. So with these changes, why not take hold and embrace the opportunities that present themselves each and every day.

All parents, teachers and corporate leaders have the duty and responsibility to lead by example. Encouragement is paramount in the daily lives of all those who listen to individuals in authority. There is nothing quite as powerful as the message delivered by a person who offers hope.

Wisdom is the knowledge gained from individuals who walked the walk and talked the talk. In many instances those same individuals faced adversity but never let anyone stand in their path toward achieving success. Forget the negative publicity and news media which surrounds us. Of course it exists; however it should not be a deterrent to letting ourselves enjoy all the positive aspects of life that surrounds us, daily. On any day of the week you can read or hear about a person who believed in themselves and persevered until they reached their goals.

The stories of individual achievement, throughout history are too numerous to count. Whether they are stories of invention, conquering new lands, finding cures for disease or creating wealth, these awesome stories serve as a guide. They demonstrate the power and strength of the human spirit.

There has never been a time in history when the power to overcome adversity has been as prevalent as it is today. The internet, cell phones, computers, GPS systems and other technological advances provide us with more freedom and access to information than ever before.

Today, more than ever, there is opportunity around every corner. There is literally no reason for a person to believe they can not succeed. Lack of education, money and time are only excuses for those who accept discouragement and defeat because they are not willing to change. A formal education requires attending an accredited college or university. However there is another school equally as educational. It is called the school of hard knocks. Studies demonstrate how the road, leading to success is more a matter of attitude, passion and perseverance than it is to merely obtaining a good education.
