Are You using all your talent and creativity?

Hi Steemians!
I think we are all here trying to be successful on this platform. But are you using all your talents and creativity?

We have all heard the saying;
If you always do,
what you have always done,
you will always get,
what you have always gotten.

As I read a speech by Denzel Washington, a particular passage stood out. He said;

“To get something you never had, you have to do something you never did.”

He then told a story written by another motivational speaker Les Brown. The story is below.

”Imagine you’re on your deathbed—and standing around your bed are three types of ghosts:

ghosts representing your unfilled potential.

ghosts of the ideas you never acted on

ghosts of the talents you didn’t use.

And they’re standing around your bed.

Angry.
Disappointed.
Upset.

They say to you;
“We came to you because you could have brought us to life,”
BUT You didn’t .

“And now we have to go to the grave together.”

So I ask you today:
”How many ghosts are going to be around your bed when your time comes?”

I don’t know about you, but I want to use all my talents to be successful. And I don’t want to take any ghosts to my grave!! 😊😂😊😂

My Advice:
You should sit down and make a list of all your talents and creative ideas you have for success.

Then create your personal “white paper” just like the ones you read when your evaluating a cryptocurrency coin. The “white paper” describes the coin project: What makes it special and what are they going to do to be successful. Then create a roadmap for yourself like the cryptocurrency projects do and follow your plan.
