How do you define yourself?
§ Is it according to your achievements?
§ Your failures
§ Your setbacks and disappointments
And how do you see yourself?
§ Pitiful, weak, miserable or strong, joyful and resilient?
The bible says ….as a man thinks in his heart so is he Prob 23:7a
THE WAY WE SEE OURSELVES IS THE WAY OTHERS WILL SEE US
A story in the bible from the book of Numbers Chap.13 illustrates this concept. 12 people went to spy the promise land. The land presented opportunities and obstacles, 10 spies focused on the obstacles (giants) and even defined themselves as grass hoppers but the other 2 saw possibilities and opportunities
People will take you the way you present yourself ! Just as they saw themselves as grasshoppers so did the people.
Look beyond your current limitation and focus on the untapped- possibilities within you
