Ten Seeds of Greatness

Denis Waitley

1. The Seed of Self-Esteem (Appreciate the value of yourself)

"From self-love to self-worth"

Reflection:

    Many of us, including myself have little to no self-esteem but then there are others with an amazing amount of self-esteem.

2. The Seed of Creativity

"Releasing your creative energy"

Reflection:

    We all have our special type of way to be creative and this is shown in different forms/ways like visual,spiritual, physical, etc. Not everyone is perfect in being creative because its your way of expressing yourself in your own way with no one to judge you or tell you it is wrong. At times it can be hard to be creative but once you find your main detail, you'll be unstoppable.

3. The Seed of Responsibility

"Whatever we sow, we reap."

Reflection:

    Responsibility, a word that is very powerful as well as used each and ever day. There are times where responsibility is your number one priority with other important keys like being respectful. Everyone has to take responsibility from the tinniest ant to the biggest elephant. Even the smallest kids have the most responsible things to do.

4. The Seed of Wisdom

"A large vocabulary--which implies broad, general knowledge--characterizes the more successful persons, regardless of their occupation."

Reflection:

    A wise word of life, wisdom. It involves a lot of knowledge and teachings as well as right judgement of things. Everyone has some type of wisdom or at least reason wisdom. The saying goes that the elderly are the most wisest but yes, it can be true but then again there are young people and adults, even children with the knowledge of a wise person.Being wise involves you being positive about anything as well as having kindness and respect. Your also involved with a lot of experience because that lets you make good decisions and choice with the right judgement.

5. The Seed of Purpose

"The gold mine in your goals."

Reflection:

    Purpose, a very important word where something is done or created or for which exists like all of us here on planet earth or just anything in this entire universe.

6. The Seed of Communication

Reflection:

    Communication is a very important skill that we all should have especially since we use it on a daily basis and of course comes in handy.

7. Faith
"The power of positive believing"

Reflection:

    Faith is a very important seed which should be in every one of us. Faith is a very strong word and when put into action it can have the most biggest impact ever with nothing to stop its way. Faith is demonstrated in many ways and one way that Im sure most of us have seen are in movies but have you ever had faith in someone or in yourself? Faith always comes in the right time so all you have to do is believe in it as well as know that it is there even things are difficult. You always have to stay positive and have a clear mind when you want faith to appear because it is going to help you a lot!

8. Adaptability

"Turning Problems into Opportunities"

Reflection:

    Adaptability consists of the word adapt which in my words mean adjusting to. When you apply adapt its turns to adaptability which mean your adapting to what ever your doing. Like take a situation for example, you use adaptability to get use to your surrounding and if you have a problem, you find a way to fix it. Sometimes it takes time to adapt and have that adaptability but little by little as you use it your slowing getting the hang of things and before you know it your pro at it like everything else that you had to get use to doing.

9. Perseverance

"The will to win is everything."

Reflection:

    Perseverance is what keeps us going each and everyday especially when things get rough. We all need it at some point and at points, it can be hard to find but thats when you really find perseverance. To have perseverance you have to go through difficult tasks as well as know what your going up again its kind of like...having a fear of something. Of course at first you cant do anything because fear is consuming you but slowly youll want to get rid of that fear so who come in to help? You do of course but right by your side is perseverance facing that fear right in front of you. It will be difficult and while consume alot of your time but before you know it, you and perseverance will be kicking that fear away and over come it!
