<p><b>Your best self already resides inside you.</b></p>
<p>Just like Michelangelo chipped the slab of marble to bring out the piece of art hidden within, you need to chip away everything that isn't truly you and find your ready-made greatness within.</p>


Greatness Within You

<p>You were amazing when you were a kid, but the disappointments and negativity of the world began to blind you from your greatness, stifling and burying it in the last few decades.</p><p>Even if now you have become friends with a mediocre life, you need to reconnect with that greatness inside you.&nbsp;<span>Take little steps, consistently and chip away the ordinary, revealing the extraordinary which was always inside you.</span></p>

<p>Michelangelo was asked how he created his masterpieces. He replied that he simply saw the works of art embedded within the slabs of marble and then set about chipping away at everything that wasn't of that work of art. Which brings me to you. And your ready-made-greatness.</p>
<p>Just maybe your job is not to become someone other than who you currently are. Just maybe, the Main Aim is to access and remember and reconnect with the best that already resides within you. In this very moment. Right here. Right now. And how can you recall your personal greatness? By starting the process of chipping away everything that is not truly you. The fears you have picked up. The limiting beliefs you have accumulated. The false assumptions that divorce you from your most authentic - and staggeringly brilliant - self.</p>
<p>Self-remembering (and personal leadership) is a journey. Took you many years to forget the personal greatness that you once knew as a kid (before the disappointments and negativity of the world began to blind you to the truth of your bigness). You may have been thinking you have been designed for mediocrity for 30 or 40 or 50 years. So that reconnection with your best won't happen in a week. But chip away - bit by bit- at everything that is not that work of art - day by day. You know that small, daily improvements stack into massive results over time (that idea just might transform your life so please let it linger).</p>
<p>The difference between a remarkable life and a mediocre one is not nearly as large as you might imagine. Nope, we all pretty much start out with the same raw stuff. Most of us are cut from the same cloth. We all can be a hero if we choose. And it just isn't that hard. Greatness comes by doing a few small and smart things each and every day. Comes from taking little steps, consistently. Comes from a making a few small chips against everything in your professional and personal life that is ordinary, so that a day eventually arrives when all that's left is The Extraordinary. Just something to think about. From a man who wants you to shine.</p>
