As I was moving about my day, a thought came to mind, when people were pushing me to write a book. They said, “Calvin, I love your notes and your blogs, you have to write a book,” or “You already have so much, you could just bundle this up and sell this! I would pay $14 for what you have now!”

I became excited. Excited about the possibility to impact so many lives, to build up people and to $$$ :) Put a little money in my pocket. But, as I tried to put things together I realized that it just wasn’t going well. I had road block in front of road block, the plans that I had to review content and put together a book could never come together. I had put forth all of this energy and pssst went no where.

Often in this American culture of overnight success, we can create in us premature ejaculation syndrome. Where we see other people getting what we desire, at a young age or quickly and we want the same thing. Then we have a desire, gift or ability and we put forth all of our energy and then pssst nothing happens. We look at ourselves in disgust, say maybe it wasn’t meant to be or I just failed.

When it is the complete opposite, you just rushed too quickly.

There is a weight to success.

You must be able to bear that weight or it can kill you.

That is beauty of the progress of success (which I will write about later). The process of success builds the foundation that can bear the weight of success. The greater the success, the greater the foundation required. If you want just a little bit of success, then you can have a few cracks in your foundation. However, if you want success that will impact the world and change people’s lives for generations to come, that type of success requires a deep and strong foundation.

So, take the time to develop your foundation. Invest in the process of success. Enjoy the roadblocks and opportunities where you succeed and where you fail. Because in all of that, a man/woman is built that can withstand the pressures and weight of the success that you are destined to achieve.

Destiny Is Not Promised: Do Not Become Lost in the Journey

Posted: May 20th, 2009 | Author: | Filed under: Faith, Personal Development | Tags: , , , , | No Comments »

We are all created to do great things and be great people. We are all created to be remembered by history. We are all created equal that is not something that is just promised by the United States Constitution, but as a man or woman you are created equal. Note that created equal does not mean that you are living equal. God forbid, any missing body members, you have two arms, one brain, two legs, etc.

However, created equal does not equate to living equal.

It is your duty and your job on earth to ensure that you live a remarkable life. You have been created with everything that you need to overcome but until you put them into play you will never know what you are truly capable of. Some call it living on the edge, until you get out of the boat and walk on water, you will never know how far you can go.

Life is designed to push back against you achieving your destiny. It is a bottom line fact, systems, rules, regulations, and people are set up as road blocks to stop you from achieving your personal destiny. You have to come to the emotional point, I will not give up, I will not give up and I can do this.

Your mother can not do it for you, your father can not do it for you, and your friends can not do it for you. The only way that you can reach and manifest your destiny is when the world pushes you up against a corner, you demand on yourself to push back. It is a learned skill, one that when master will ensure that you never lose again in your life.

Make today your day. Make today be the day that you stop allowing life to pass you by. Get angry, get focused, and get your destiny.

No one is holding up your stuff. The only reason why you are in the life that you are living now is because you accept it. How do I know that? Because the only reason why I am in the life that I am in now, is because I accepted it. Well, here is a public notice of a private declaration, I reject the areas and things in my life that are not apart of my destiny and I replace them with my aspects and features of my destiny that were promised to me as a human created on this earth.

Today is the day. Now is the time. My world is rearranged according to my words and my beliefs. If you don’t believe me, just keep living, you will see.
