Well spelt out. God bless your visions.
I am inspired more.
What i could pick from this was that we should try to leave a Lasting Impression to People
“Don’t be a pepper on the eyes of people; Rather be the salt on their tongue and make a difference that influences their sense of belonging to the earth.”
If wewant to leave a lasting imprint to people we encounter, use whatever we have to offer. These are our gifts and talents.
I really enjoy the story shared by Arianna Huffington on her book, Thrive. It is about her sister, Agappi, who graduated from the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in London.
Despite the awards she received, she didn’t get the parts she hoped for when she auditioned for a theatre play. This led her to be discouraged to use her talents.
But a random encounter from a stranger changed the trajectory of how she sees her talents. She took the courage to talk to a random stranger which opened up a conversation about theatre play. At that same moment, she opened up herself and shared her talents with a woman who is apparently aware of the play.
She did a short monologue and the woman broke in tears after being moved on the way she acted. She felt more encouraged than ever. And on that same bus, she had her important lesson:
“That moment of sharing without an agenda of getting a part wasn’t about the outcome but about the joy of touching others and giving unconditionally what was mine to give. And that brought with it a tremendous sense of fulfillment.”
Thank you for the reminder of exhibiting my talent and gifts. I will definitely go back to that book and enrich my self more. Thank you @surpassinggoogle.

You really made huge points.
Normally if something’s hard, it’ll be worth the effort, whereas anything easy probably only gives you a short little burst of happiness. Most people absolutely hate hard work, yet there are those who just get on with it because they understand what this hard work’s worth.
The hard to get things are what most people will just dream about, whilst they continue to carry out every easy task that comes their way. The minority of people will commit to the hard work and have a much much greater chance of achieving their dreams.
What’s easy doesn’t require persistence. What’s hard does.
There is nothing as sweet as fulfillment. Even if you achieve something that look like it. This might still not bring fulfillment but when you achieve the real goal itself then automatic fulfillment comes in. hat is optimizing ones talent. Nice comment dear. Go back to the and do more.
For a long time, I directed my focus on racking up achievement not fulfillment in life. I thought if I just set goals, worked hard and accomplished some extraordinary things, I would feel full. However, what I discovered to the contrary is I still felt a void. Amazing achievements do not in and of themselves yield a sense of purpose and meaning and are absolutely no guarantee of personal fulfillment. Granted, I experienced periods of delight but the sensation was short-lived. If you truly believe and desire fulfillment, start the process of discovering what that experience is for you (I did).
