There are two types of people who will tell you that you cannot make a difference in this world: those who are afraid to try and those who are afraid you will succeed.

There are numberless excuses for not making a difference in this world. Some of these excuses originate from within us. They are the result of our fears and worries. We think ourselves smaller than we actually are, hence we do not realize how great of an impact we can have. In other cases other people want to keep us small, for whatever nefarious reasons.

Whenever we are confronted with such opposition, it is of the greatest importance to keep going. Only if we are able to ignore our own excuses and other people’s doubts we can strive for excellence.

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do.

The motivational power of this fantastic quote lies therein that it makes us ask the question, “ Who else should be great and fabulous, if not you ?” Great people are not born, they had the courage to become the best they can be. It is a decision to commit oneself to excellence, day after day. The greatest have arisen from the most ordinary places. They were given the most mundane tools, yet they still managed to shine in the brightest light possible. All these great people share one trait: the willingness to constantly improve themselves in every area of life.

You don’t love someone for their looks, or their clothes, or their fancy car, but because they sing a song only you can hear. – Oscar Wilde
