Matthew Chapter 25 (Parable of the Talents)
I am a graduate, I have a masters’ degree, I am experienced, I am talented, I have diverse skills; these are the thoughts/mentality and reality of most youths. Yes! Beautiful! You have a bachelor’s degree, masters degree, talents or what have you but still, having it isn’t enough.
It is important to state here, that there is no one that is created empty, without any gift. What you need, to be who you want to be is in you, discovering it/ digging it out is however, your responsibility. Though we are not equally gifted, yet, there is no one without a deposit of gift/talent.
With the understanding that there is something deposited in you at creation, having it is however, isn’t just enough. What are you doing with that deposit? What are you doing with that gift/talent? Remember, whatever your innate ability is, it is for a purpose. The purpose of whatever gift you have is “Maximum Utilization, resulting to High Productivity” as it has been said that nothing remains constant, it increases or decreases, grows or die.
Self Discovery – Self Development – Achievement
There is a quote that says… “The difference between who you are and who you want to be is what you do. Discover what has been deposited in you, develop/work on it and achieve your desired results/become who you want to be.
Having it isn’t just enough, using it/putting it to use is essential to get results. Put what you have to use, stop wishing for things to happen. Work with what you have no matter how small/little, for there is always a room for Growth, Development and Improvement.
