Awaken Your Day - June 7, 2018 - Recognize
"There's only few people who have the strength to honor someone's achievement without envy."
- Aeschylus.
- Aeschylus.
Let's be honest, I don't know who Aeschylus is. And his actual quote might look more like this " It is in the character of very few men to honor without envy a friend who has prospered."
So while I don't know him. I like what he says. And it had me thinking...about some good friends who are great people and who have achieved great success - inspiring success - and that I do not envy them for it - rather I admire the qualities in them that helped them attain that success.
Inspired by their hard work, focus, determination and drive. And the positive outlook all along the way.
You have these people in your life. Spend a moment today letting their success inspire how you approach your day and maybe your own actions. Couldn't hurt could it. But ask yourself if are one of the few who can avoid envy and pay more attention to the footsteps these inspiring people leave for us to follow.
Good morning, greater day. Greater you ... with some greatness around you.
