NURTURE YOUR UNIQUE TALENTS

Nurture Your Unique Talents

You undoubtedly admire international and national icons. They

exude positive energy. However, each icon is special, but cannot

excel in all fields. For example, Roger Federer, male tennis

champion, cannot excel in boxing. Tiger Woods, golf master,

cannot excel in cricket. Brian Lara, world cricket champion cannot

excel in football. Serena Williams, ladies tennis champion,

cannot excel in ice skating. Hasley Crawford, Trinidad and

Tobago’s only Olympic Gold Medalist,cannot excel in football.

President Barack Obama, the great politician, cannot excel in

baseball. The common factor is that each icon nurtured and

developed his or her special skill.

What about you? What is your special skill or talent? How

serious are you about developing that gift you have been given.

Each of us has a special part to play in the design of the Universe.

Ensure that you play your part well. Reflect and identify the

area that people praise you for most. Resolve to develop your

gift to its fullest. What you have to contribute to society is

important. Every piece of the puzzle of life is important

to the final solution.

Your contribution is important. Raise your stakes. Act with

courage and thoroughness. Your unique contribution may not

appear important, but it is. A little salt may not appear important

but it makes all the difference to the final taste of the food.

So too is your contribution to society.

You may ask what can I contribute? Your contribution is to

develop fully whatever you are best at doing. It may be your

career, family, sports, spirituality, caring for others, or

whatever it is that you excel in. Step up to the plate.

Believe in yourself. Know that you have untold unused

potential. Awake and let your brilliance shine. Polish the

diamond that is within you. You can do it. Think your

uplifting thoughts, and act with intentionality to achieve

your dreams, while fulfilling your life’s destiny.
