Look Inside For Talent
"Go and do your gift everyday." - Phil Pringle, Meditations
Watch all of those television commercials while relaxing during the evening after work. You will hear announcer carnival barking the next great thing we need in our life. Truly amazing how good they are at their jobs, a gift no doubt.
The "Easy Jet Water Cannon", "One Piece Dryer Ball", and even a "Three Speaker Rodent Repeller" are must have products. There are so many things materially, monetary, job, or relationship related that we get pumped up to want. Eventually we become immune to what we have already and end up only wanting.
We also tend to forget what we already have inside of us.
It is a talent of some sort that if we don't look inward, we will never see it. The gift will get blurred by the want of other things. And it is a talent so unique because it is your talent. It must also be nurtured and brought out into the light of day.
Once a talent is recognized and understood, it can be shared with others. As you develop your talent, draw yourself to others who can help you build upon it.
The quality of those we surround our self with reflect the advice and life we get. Same is the quality of water you drink is only as good as the quality of the well drawn from. The well needs to be tended and cared for or it will fall into disrepair. A poor well will only create sickness and misery.
Surrounding yourself with good people, the water drawn will refresh you.
Do what you can to shut out the unnecessary noise and wants of life. Concentrate on the gift which already exists inside. Use your gift everyday and see how much your world expands.
Stay inspired my friends!

Talent Within
The quote that I use often is "Believe in your vision, act upon that vision and then realize the vision." Each of us have a talent within that allows us to do great things in this life. The struggle is to believe in it and to have the courage to use that talent. Some people easily express their talent and everyone looks at them thinking what a genius they are.
You can be that genius as well by believing in yourself. A huge step for some of us is in the 'believing' part. You have it inside of you but convincing oneself to bring it to the surface creates tension and doubt. You struggle to nurture it while all along, external forces are saying, "you can do it."
Maybe it is fear of failure that could possibly expose a weakness. We are human and imperfect; failure is simply an opportunity to learn and grow. Or possibly the reason is that we lack self confidence. We convince our self that we will never be good enough. Yet you get up everyday and perform superbly. That alone should be enough reason to know you can do anything.
Is it simple as that? Not really, but you'll never know without trying. It is said that you will miss the target 100% of the time if you never shoot the arrow. That is guaranteed. But if you allow yourself to release the arrow, eventually it will find its mark.
Pull the talent you have within to the surface. Allow yourself to believe. You can achieve what you want in life.
