You Can Create the Miracle, the Miracle awaits You
"What limits you is not what you don't have; what limits you is what you have but don't know how to use!" - Steve Harris
A jobless man once applied for the position of an 'office boy' at Microsoft. The HR manager interviewed him and then gave him a test to clean the floor. The man passed the test.
"You are hired. Give me your e-mail address, and I'll send you the job offer letter bearing the date you should report for work", the HR manager informed the man.
The man however replied, “I don't have a
computer, or an email!"
"I'm sorry. If you don't have an email, that
means you do not exist. And we cannot hire a person who does not exist", said the HR manager.
The man was very disappointed. He didn't know what to do. He had only $10 left on him. Once that is spent, he won't have any money to buy any food or to live on.
He went to the supermarket to get some foods but eventually bought a crate of tomatoes with his $10 as he found them cheap. He then went from house door to door to sell the tomatoes, and in less than two hours he doubled his money. He repeated the operation three times successfully, and returned home with $80.
He then realized that he can survive this way. So, he went every day earlier, and returned late. He doubled or tripled his money every day. Soon, he bought a cart for moving the tomatoes in larger quantities, and then a truck in the second year. Within five years, he had a fleet of delivery trucks.
Now, five years after he was denied a Microsoft job because of no e-mail, the man, already one of the biggest food retailers in the U.S, started to plan his family's future, and decided to have a life
insurance. So, he called an insurance broker, and chose a protection plan. At the end of the conversation, the broker asked him for his e-mail address. The man replied: 'I don't have an email.'
The broker was dumbfounded. "You don't have an email, and yet have succeeded in building an empire. Can you imagine what you could have been if you had an email?," he exclaimed!
The man thought for a while, and replied with smile, "an office boy at Microsoft!"
Startled, the insurance broker asked, "How? Why?" And he graciously explained that he would've been given the 'cleaner' job in Microsoft if he had an email.
When life pushed you out of your comfort/familiar zone because of WHAT YOU DON'T HAVE, DON'T GET BITTER, JUST GET BETTER at using WHAT YOU HAVE but possibly don't regard or know.
Yes, you don't have a job, business capital, influential family name, degree, a spouse, or whatever!
This new week, shake off all the bitterness or frustration, and look inward for what you have but disregarding as a mere small 'thing' and put it into use regardless.
Think Big, but Start small and Grow fast!
While the Israelites in the wilderness were waiting for God to miraculously part the Red sea, God was waiting for them to keep moving on and on Moses to use the rod in his hands.
Heaven is waiting on you to create a miracle, stop waiting on heaven for your miracle!
Good morning.
You are unstoppable!
