One of the greatest ambitions people have is to leave their imprint upon the world, to make a difference and to leave the world a better place. Along the way, sometimes it becomes apparent that there is so much to do on a daily basis that perhaps we will not have as great an impact as we might like to have. Maybe we will not be the next Einstein or the next Bill Gates, but we do have impact and we are unique and gifted in a special way that is like no other.
We change the world everyday in everything we do and say whether we know it or not. When we become deliberate and decisive about how we spend our days and our time, our impact becomes greater and more in alignment with the legacy we want to leave.
Get a vision – keep it in front of you - take daily steps toward getting closer and closer to it.Know what you want for your life and go for it – one step at a time – one thought at a time - one action at a time. When we give up our dreams altogether or put them on hold, we rarely get back to them for life goes on and life happens.
As we take the little steps, eventually they become big steps, impact is felt and our imprint is left. What imprint are you making today with your thoughts, your words and your actions?
I recently read a quote that says it all-
"Think you can't change the world? Too late, you already have."
