Why you have to desire for greatness

The desire for greatness is the source of purpose and inspires meaning. It gives the human spirit the motivation to aspire.

The desire for greatness is where the incentive for progress, development and inventions is birthed. Of course greatness is good! Anyone can be great. Now this is the secret: don't be deceived with this, if you want to be great, "don't desire greatness, don't try to be great" that is a deadly disease to greatness. And such discouragement easily comes
from such environment where poverty is reinforcing the fact that greatness was out of reach. Our Creator places greatness in the grasp of every human. This takes leadership out of the elite few, the privileged few, and
into the hand of any human who learns the secret. Yes, it's good that you believe that greatness is not only possible but also accessible, meanwhile it is accessible to every human—whoever. It maybe anyone. If you want to be great—it is all about serving yourself to the people.

For you to be great:
Avoid these: You don't own people. You don't control people. You don't manipulate people. You don't oppress people. You don't threaten people. You don't use people. In essence leadership everywhere you go, anywhere you are should be all about "serving yourself to the people". Again, if you want to become great you must be servant. See also "servant leadership and benefits" And you must be a slave before you can be the first.

However, if you want to be great,  the greatest will be the one who is the servant of all. He serves everyone what he has. What does he have? He has his gift. If you refine your gift, develop your gift and then serve your gift to the world, then you become great. That's just the simple formula for greatness.

You should know that the idea of leadership that we have be perceiving differently has nothing to do with ruling people. Rather it has more to do with your "gift" see also "royalty-your gift" Identifying your gift is one thing, maximizing your gift is another thing and then serving that gift to the world—brings out the best "you".

The concept of greatness from the world is about—how many people serve you? Then our ultimate Philosopher Christ reverses it—how many people do you serve? Meanwhile, He bases His idea of leadership on completely different values. You cannot measure true leadership by how many people serve you, but by how many people you serve.

Remember that this came from Him—the greatest among you shall be the youngest.

All this while, it has been all about gift, "what have you been doing with your gift?" It's time you identified your gift and maximized it to serve the world. The world hungers for your gift. Start it today, now! Right now!

Things you should expect when you connect with your spot

Get out of the rat race. After all, if you win, you will simply be the big rat. Stop running in the competition. The only person you should compete with is yourself. "how well am I performing in my leadership spot," is what you should ask yourself. You have to know that the battery does not compete with a spark plug, because the battery knows the spark plug can never be a battery, and so on. They sit in the engine in their spots and serve the engine their gift without competing

Why does negative behaviour continue?

It works. There is some kind of payoff, some type of momentary satisfaction that is derived from not changing. The reward might be financial or psychological. Some people will continue unproductive behaviour to seek approval, acceptance, praise, or love. Others continue their unacceptable actions out of pride, greed or a sense of personal fulfilment. They may oppress others with their need to always be right because they treasure being right- even if it destroys a relationship.

Adding value to other people is the work of a positive influencer

As you move up to the higher levels of influence and become an active influencer, you can begin to have a positive influence on people and add value on their lives. That's true for any positive influencer. The baby-sitter who reads to the child encourages him to love books and helps him become a lifelong learner. The teacher who puts his faith, confidence, and love on a child helps the child to feel valued and good about herself. That boss who delegates to the employees and gives them authority as well as responsibility enlarges their horizons and empowers them to become better workers and people. Even the parents who know how to give their children grace and when to, also help them to stay open and communicative. All of these people add lasting value to the lives of other people. One thing is this, we don't know what kind of influence you have on others, today as you read this article. Your actions may touch the lives of thousands of people. Perhaps you use the opportunity
