You are Blessed...

You are blessed. You are filled with possibilities. What good are your blessings if you’re not making the most of them? What value are your possibilities if you do not make the effort to fulfill them?  I challenge you to stop for a moment and consider all the good things which you too often take for granted -- your health, your family, the air you breathe, the water you drink, your home, your community, the magnificent universe around you, your faith, your friends, the knowledge you possess, your skills, the list goes on and on.

Think of the good things you have going for you. There may be many or there may be few. What matters most, is that YOU ARE BLESSED.  You can take all the things that are of you, and from them you will grow. Gratitude and appreciation is vital in the growth of who you are and what you have.  

When you truly appreciate your blessings, they become powerfully compelling. They will grow, filling your life with quality and excellence, and compelling you to reach even higher.

Realize that gratitude and thankfulness are more than just words or thoughts. To truly appreciate the good things in your life, you must take the actions necessary to nurture and defend them.

Remember, you’re blessed.  You've got a great starting point. Choose today to let your many blessings compel you to reach ever higher.
