Being useful
How do wealthy people get that way? By making themselves
useful.
How does someone in a leadership position get into that
position? By being useful.
How do you take an ordinary day and turn it into a
memorable, extraordinary one? By doing something useful and
valuable with it.
If you're constantly worried about what you can get, then
you'll never be satisfied. Yet when your focus is on what
you can give and on finding new ways to be useful, your life
will be richly rewarding.
It is truly a blessing to be useful, and a joy to be
effective and productive. Think of the many opportunities
available for you to experience that joy in your own unique
way.
Look at yourself, look at the world, and look for how you
can be useful. Choose to make a difference, and not only
will you bring much value to life, you'll feel great about
being able to do it.
