Do Not Imitate the Success of Others – Wisdom Unplugged
Thank you for joining us for our five days per week wisdom and legacy building podcast. This is Day 930 of our trek, and it is time for our 3-minute mini-trek called Wisdom Unplugged. Thank you for joining me on this trek called life.
This short nugget of wisdom includes an inspirational quote with a little bit of additional content for today’s trek. Consider this your vitamin supplement of wisdom for today. So let’s jump right in with today’s nugget.
Today’s quote is from Harrison Ford, and it is,“All I would tell people is to hold onto what was individual about themselves, not to allow their ambition for success to cause them to try to imitate the success of others. You’ve got to find it on your own terms.”
Do Not Imitate the Success of Others
Nearly everyone desires to be successful in one or many areas of life, which is admirable. Unfortunately, many people attempt to become successful by imitating the success of others. You will never be truly successful imitating others. True success is becoming the best possible person that you can become. Success is to fully utilize your God-given talents and opportunities and fulfill His will for your life.
You are created uniquely by God for a specific purpose that only you can fulfill. If you attempt to be successful in imitating the success of someone else, you may miss that unique opportunity that only you can become. Do not rob the world of the impact your success can bring. You and the world will be much richer by you successfully becoming you.
Ephesians 2:10 – For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.
