When
we were conceived and growing in our mother's womb, we were "free."
There were no expectations, no doubt, no fear...we had the freedom to just
"be." The day we were born, we were stripped of our freedom. From day
one, we were exposed to societal expectations born out of our ancestors, as
well as limiting beliefs, judgments, fear, worry, doubt, biases, and so much
more. The focus growing up was on what we couldn't do not what we could, on our
weaknesses not our strengths, and on what we’re expected to "be" not
what makes us unique.
There
are a few "humans" who overcame fear of rejection, went against the
norm, and searched for their inner "truth." They discovered their
talents, turned those talents into strengths, and aimed for a higher purpose in
life. These are our great leaders of the World who had a vision for what the future
“could be:” George Washington, Mother Teresa, Nelson Mandela, Martin Luther
King, Jr., Rosa Parks, Warren Buffet…just to name a few.
It is
time to reclaim your freedom. We were all born with talents and put on this
earth to be unique. Sharpen your mind, develop your innate gifts,
and break free of the limitations you have been swaddled in since birth. It is not about power, money,
status or prestige. It is about you, your innate gifts, your uniqueness, and
your own power to be the best of who you were born to be. Discover, accept, and
strengthen your own inner self to re-gain freedom, happiness, and fulfillment.
In
return, be a servant leader and teach others to lead by your example. Let our
children be born into the universal truths of goodness, uniqueness, and empower
them to serve others by being their best selves! Only then will we truly live
out our personal destiny and leave behind our true legacy. Go forth and
make an impact on the world, seek to strengthen "humankind," rather
than destroy the uniqueness of human existence. - All rights reserved (c) 2015 Beckie Jorgensen
