Do you ever have the feeling that your life is not as satisfying as it could be? Do you have longheld hopes and dreams that have not been fulfilled? No matter how far away you think you are from the life you desire, the change you long for can happen.
I recall the words of a great one, Henry Ford who brought about a revolution in the industrial system of America by inventing the automobile. And it was Henry Ford who said on one occasion, “There is not a man who is not capable of doing very much greater than what he thinks he can.” There is not a living soul on earth who does not have the capacity to do very much greater than what he thinks he can. Within every one of you, lie locked up infinite powers of the spirit, immense energies of the eternal. If only you will release but one fraction of those powers, you will find there is nothing that you will not be able to achieve.
My friends I read concerning a man. His name is Fredrick. At one time he worked as the manager of a private TV and radio station in America. He took to drinking heavily and one night he took a woman with himself away from the town to a distant restaurant and there both of them got pretty drunk. And on their way back this man smashed his car into a telephone pole. The woman was very badly injured. She was removed to a hospital. The man was arrested and jailed overnight. The affair got into the newspaper. Fredrick’s boss, his employer read concerning the entire incident. He called Fredrick to his office and said to him, “I am deeply disappointed in you, but none the less I have not lost hope in you. I have not lost my faith in you. It is true a man with your way of life cannot continue to be in charge of my TV and radio station, I have to fire you but as I said I believe in you. I have faith in you and I want you to become a success in life. I don’t want you to run away from this community. I want you to rehabilitate yourself amidst people who know you. I want you to start a new business, and now let us see what your assets are?”
