Greatness
Celebrating your GREATNESS!
Building your inner wealth
What if you went about your entire life trying to bring forth the ‘greatness’ in every person you met? You would stop and notice. You would honor and name every great thing you saw, so enamored by their gifts and the values they exhibit in the way they live. One of the qualities which I know to be fairly strong in myself is a core faith that all people are good; that while they may not manifest it in their actions consistently, it lies within them – perhaps untapped, unrecognized even by themselves. They have let their mirror reflect only what others have said about them, what negative beliefs they have owned about the world, themselves, and their journey. They live in their problems and their past. Yet I know each person has the best of intentions: the best intention to be the best of themselves that they can. They fall short when their brain goes right to the anger/fear/worry that is often their first thought in a new situation, or one where experience taught them to not trust. They have forgotten to be enamored with themselves.
Imagine the power they possess, you possess, if you were to live as though you were great. You are great. To honor your greatness always. This life is not about survival but about living. Not a discovery process – a recovery process of your ultimate greatness, that has been there all along.
We at Newman intend to recognize the abundance of GREATNESS in our students!
