One person has the ability to completely change the world. Why are you not that one person? What is stopping you from having an impact on hundreds of thousands of people? There are many reasons we all use to justify our playing small and not having the impact on the world that people like Gandhi, Christ, Mohammed, or Buddha have had. What made these individuals rise beyond their own personal desires and live and teach in a way that inspired millions?

Instead of assuming that these were extremely special and rare individuals, why not look at yourself and recognize those same qualities that you possess? Why not accept your highest self and realize that it is empowered with the same connection with the ultimate source of all knowledge, love and power that creates the entire universe? When you recognize your true greatness then you realize that the only thing stopping you from sharing that brilliance with others is your own fears. This is actually a form of selfishness, being afraid to share your true essence in a way that is beneficial to all. When you have true compassion for others you will move beyond those fears and share your knowledge, energy and love in a way that will transform innumerable lives.
