Build a strong belief system

A few things I learned from the great Will Smith:

1)      Greatness is not a godlike feature only the special among us will ever possess. It truly exists in all of us. As soon as you understand the following things about yourself:

–          I know who I am

–          I know what I want

–          This is what I believe

And then, you do what you need to do to get what you want. It’s really a very simple concept, but most of us try to over complicate the situation.

Use the following as your guideline:

1)     Develop a strong belief system.

2)      Don’t ever tell yourself there is something you can’t do. Persistence and Dedication is key.

3)      If you are going to be living on this planet, there is a necessity to make a difference. You have to make every person you come in contact with better.  If you are not making someone else’s life better, you are wasting your time.

4)      Leave a legacy. Make the world to be better because you were here.

Our thoughts, our feelings, our dreams and ideas are physical in the universe. If we dream something and we commit ourselves to it, it’s a physical trust towards realization that we can put into the universe. That the universe is not something that will push us around.  That we can demand the universe to become what we want it to be.
