What The World Can Give To You? What Can You Give To The World?

by Christopher Panlaqui

In the recent movie that I watched, one of the character asked his students "What the world can give to you? What can you give to the world?" this scenario struck me so much, and to think of it he is just talking to his students who happens to be on grade school only - children that knows little about the game we call life.
I realized life is a game that all of us must win to the game we call Life's journey. But before you win you need to be aware and we need to practice. Do you show up for practice? That's the question I'm asking you. What do you mean? I'm not on any sports you might reply. ...Not so fast partner! You may not know it, but all of us (including you) are involved in sports.

Without exception we all play "The Sport of LIFE". ..That includes every single one of us my friend! This game of life lasts until the time on the playing field of earth runs out. It is my personal belief that every single person has been created in the image and likeness of God and holds seeds of greatness deep inside of them, but it's up to us to manifest them and fulfill our task as beings. It's our responsibility to do so. ...On top of that, we are born to pursue this (greatness) so we can develop more to give back to others. We cannot give much from lack, it is better to have an overflowing cup. We were meant to live in abundance in all areas.
There's only one small problem some folks play seriously and purpose to win, while others do not even seem to have a clue they are playing in the mend game. Imagine that, not showing up for the most important game you are in Life! If that's you, it is not always your fault, but either way the case in hand is that the game continues whether you know your playing or not.
So what makes some perform exceptionally well in this game while others seem to struggle just to get even one play completed in short, what is the difference? Why some people happy, successful and loving life, while others seem to be struggling like crazy in ALL areas?
The answer is PRACTICE. Practice makes all the difference in the world. Good practice and preparation is essential to success. Practice is what allows you to perform with poise in the tough game situations like "when opportunity knocks in your life". I was watching interviews with some of the greatest basketball players and one said that "practice is the struggle and the tough part that has to be done...it's what put you in a position to win and through the preparation makes the game fun!"
When practice or preparation is good, the game gets easier. So how do you practice for the game of life? "CREATE GOOD HABITS and GOOD ATTITUDE". Your habits and attitude will predict your future. High performance and good practice go hand in hand. Take out a sheet of paper and write down all of your habits through each day for one week and at the end of the week evaluate them. You might be in for a BIG surprise. Then start creating habits like reading self improvement books, setting and reviewing goals, meditating on your dreams, making new and better relationships, challenging yourself more, taking advantage of opportunity and more, getting more spiritual, working out, eating healthy, etc. Once you have your new habits down and good attitude, it's time to start working hard on them ONE AT A TIME so you do not get overwhelmed. Then when you are asked the question "Do you show up and push yourself in practice?" you will reply absolutely, every day and just watch how the game of life gets easier! Get Fired up about your future...nobody else is going to if you do not act! I'm backing you, when no one else believes in you. GO FOR IT! Because life is beautiful so we need to live each day as it is our last day! We need to win to this game of our life.
