Are you an undiscovered writer? Is there an artist inside you just itching to be let out? Do you see a musician in your dreams but not in reality?

What are your hidden talents?

If your answer is "I have none", then that's wrong answer.

We are all creative in more ways than one. It's just too bad we're also our own worst critics.

We envy those people who seem to follow their hearts effortlessly. We see works of art every day, but can't imagine ourselves actually being artist. We dream of becoming a creative individual that others admire.

Are you wasting your talents by ignoring them and living your life in a sea of blindness?

Well don't feel alone, because there are many of us.

The Magnificent Obsession!

No matter who you are, no matter what you have been, no matter what you have done in your past, you can develop a magnificent obsession for something that can change your world and world you live in.

The principle of this obsession is so simple that people who could benefit most may not see it at all. That's because those people are expecting something hard. After all, it has to be hard if it is to be of value is a prevalent attitude in this country.

Here is simplicity of it. Develop a magnificent obsession for helping other people without expecting anything in return. And then, make sure no one else knows it was you that did it. No payment, no reward, no recognition expectations on your part.

I can just hear somebody now saying, "Vegas, you are just a few grapes short of a fruit salad". :>) Not really. Here's why. You will set in motion an inexorable law that says no matter how hard you try to avoid compensation, reward, payment, or recognition, a reward will be showered on you.

After My Own Heart!

Every living person can do something to help others. We all have ability to create an insatiable desire to help others. You may not be wealthy, but money is really lowest form of power in helping others. You know what highest form is? Love.

The willingness to share yourself for someone else is highest form of power and help you can offer. The willingness to share a talent, a skill, an experience for welfare and benefit of another, from an attitude of love, will bring rewards unsearchable in this life.

Think about this: Long after money is gone from a good deed, love will remain. Maybe that's one reason some relationships stay together after a financial crisis. People may forget after money is spent, but act of love and kindness, sharing of oneself will never be forgotten.

Silver And Gold Have I None, But Such As I Have I Give Thee!

Your most preciously valued possessions and abilities are often things that are invisible. They are things that only you have and only you can share with a hurting world. The more you share of yourself, more you will have in return. It's a law; you can't stop it from working no matter how hard you try.

I heard story of John D. Rockefeller and how he started March of Dimes foundation. John D. was dying of stomach ulcers at a very early age. He couldn't eat anything but mild baby food. He decided that if his life was going to end so early, he wanted to do something he had never done.

A Golden Opportunity Comes Once In A Lifetime!

So, he proceeded to give away everything he had. He was trying to give it all away before he died, but ironically, more he gave more that came back to him. It was coming back faster than he could give it away. And clock of death was still ticking.
