Unlocking The Greatness Within You

It is our God-given right to live out the dreams that are within us. Once we challenge our excuses, see past our situation, and refuse to fall victim to our limitations we give ourselves permission to be who we were created to be. No man was created to be a failure or to lead a dormant life; that is chosen. We are all created to be great. By each individual choosing to live and not exist, we liberate others to do the same.
