Are You One In 7 Billion People?

Are you one in 7 billion people, or are you one of 7 billion people? Are you ‘one in a million’ as the time honored compliment goes? Contrary to our pop culture of mega-personality worship, on-line and off-line, following and being followed, every person is unique. You are unique! Everyone counts, and you are counted, with dignity, respect and decency.

Are you one in the crowd? Or are you the one in the crowd that stands apart? Not because you are better. Because, you have the ability to teach, coach and develop others. You have the foresight to lead the way, and forge a new path.

Think of teenagers who are already millionaires or are well on their way. These are young adults who are way ahead of their older colleagues in real estate, business and ground breaking on-line technology.

We are, all one in 7 billion, while being one of 7 billion. Each one of us is a leader, while simultaneously giving respect to others and serving one another. Are you one of the leaders? Are you one in courage, hard work and absolute mind numbing persistence, who is making a difference in the world? Right where you are, what you are doing and where you are going. Somehow and someway.

“Be faithful in small things because it is in them that your strength lies.”

“Do not wait for leaders; do it alone, person to person.” -Mother Teresa

Look at what Eunice Kennedy Shriver accomplished with the Special Olympics. There was no such thing until she came along, not even close. She had an idea and together with people, they made it happen. She did not rest on her laurels, her personal wealth and her family’s fame. People worldwide are dignified, raised up and given the respect they deserve, because of what one lady set out to do.

Gandhi said “Be the change you want to see in the world.”

Be the extraordinary life that you are. It makes no difference where you’re at. Standing in line at Starbucks, putting gas in your car, emptying the dishwasher or shopping at the supermarket.

Let’s overcome our fear of greatness. For we are great, each and everyone of us, in our own right. Let us remember our greatness is magnified by those we greet, meet and help along the way. True greatness is born from people together, through the power of the team.

Look at the whole world as your team. The world walks with you, as you walk with it. As you lead it forth.

To your success, Chad
