DO MORE
Owning a
business does not make you an entrepreneur. Being a graduate does not make
you a success. Good work is the work that you do well and you can do without
blinking. Great work is doing what’s meaningful to you, has an impact, and
stretches you. Your life is more than just
for you alone; your life is for the world to benefit from.
for you alone; your life is for the world to benefit from.
There
are potentials and resources in you waiting to be harnessed. There are records
in you waiting to be broken and new ones to be set. There are ideas and
inventions patiently waiting for your genius to take them over. Friends, you
need to do more. In order to achieve great feats and enjoy excellence, you need
to do more. What do I mean? I mean every word you understand; you need to do
more.
I wish I
can explain better but, the words of John Mason did it all in one of his books.
Read through and feel how I feel. You need to stop living for yourself and
start living for others. Life is too short to live just like that. You need to
start doing more.
You need
to …
Do
more than hear – listen
Do
more than agree – cooperate
Do
more than talk – communicate
Do
more than grow – bloom
Do
more than spend – invest
Do
more than think – create
Do
more than work – excel
Do
more than share – give
Do
more than decide – discern
Do
more than consider – commit
Do
more than forgive – forget
Do
more than help – serve
Do
more than coexist – reconcile
Do
more than sing – worship
Do
more than think – plan
Do
more than dream – do
Do
more than see – perceive
Do
more than read – apply
Do
more than receive – reciprocate
Do
more than choose – focus
Do
more than wish – believe
Do
more than advice – help
Do
more than speak – impart
Do
more than encourage – inspire
Do
more than add – multiply
Do
more than change – improve
Do
more than reach – stretch
Do
more than ponder – pray
Do
more than just live – live for Jesus
I
believe you now know that beyond everything, there is a more that can be done.
You will not attain great feats by ordinary deeds. You will not unlock possibilities
by mere wishing. You need to dare like the lion to be the king of the jungle.
There is no building without a foundation; the taller the intended height, the
deeper the foundation will be … cause and effect.
You
need to do more, to get more out of life. You need to do more to write your
footprints in the sands of time. You need to do more if your name will be
resounded in history and journals many years after you leave the earth. You
need to do more, if I will get to read your story.
Remember,
you have just a life to make all the difference. Start today and begin to
impart mankind in your own way. I know that you are the next person I will read
about.
