How To Control Your Future

I was reading a quality book called ‘Burn the Bull S**t‘ by Steven Doran, and he quoted a really inspiring quote:

 

“You can either be a creature of circumstance, or a creature of circumstance.”

 

Amen. A motherfudging men.

 

I think we forget sometimes just how much power each of us has – we blame a lot on external circumstances and just leave it like that, without trying to do anything to change our position.

 

Imagine you wanted to be a basketball player, but got kicked out your high school team because you weren’t good enough. Now for a lot of us, that’s it; we would give up and accept that we weren’t capable of becoming a basketball player…

 

But not for Michael Jordan, the greatest basketball player of all time.

 

He got kicked out of his high school team because he wasn’t good enough, but instead of giving up, he used that as pure fire to create his own circumstance to achieve his dream of being an NBA player. And what happened? He is now classed as the best basketball player of all time.

 

This just goes to show what you are capable of if you decide to take your destiny into your own hands.

 

Do not underestimate yourself – you are capable of greatness. Never forget that.

 

-Mike
