To be GREAT!!!

What does this mean? Have you ever thought about it...we all love great people and love to meet those who are addressed as such...but what does greatness mean to you and me...
I believe this write up will enlighten us all....

I have a few friends who love the word great...to us it does not mean to be big/huge, it does not mean to be rich, intelligent or enormous. To us greatness is a combination of all these qualities but especially the ability to reach out to others...a large number of people positively and passionately in different ways and aspects relevant to each individual life.

Bringing this defination home....to me to you...as I thrive towards greatness, how am I living the above defination? We are in a very selfish world and each of us can be egotistic... I strongly believe and advocate that we reduce all the egotistical characteristics in us...this will take a lot of effort and discipline on our part.

Note that all great people have leadership attribute basically because their primary aim is to touch the lives of others...look around you and show me a great man who does not have leadership characters... not all great people are in positions of leadership but wherever they find themselves they can not help but minister to those around them...the best part is leaving that aura of greatness on the one they ministered to.

What kind of aura are you leaving in the lives of those you meet?
