How will you know what your gifts are if you don't use them

For some of us, do our thoughts about ourself line up with our abilities?  Are we even aware of our capabilities?  How will we know what we can do, if we don't test them out and take them for a ride.  Many people test out a car they wish to purchase, do we?

Or could it be that work and perseverance make some of us feel uncomfortable, perhaps because there are so many fun and pleasurable things to attend to, like even watching others work and play hard.  The only thing is that some of us just want the play part and to receive all the rewards that come from the result of earnest and consistent effort. 


Perhaps part of the problem is the issue of impatience regarding our judgment of our progress; not realizing it takes small increments of consistent practice and that self criticism, or that giving up entirely has worked against us - when we could be so close to success. 

Furthermore, does part of us recoil at the thought of success, because we don't know the HOW of pullng it off?  The responsibilities may frighten us and the sacrifice doesn't seem quite worth the effort. 

I once watched an interview done of co-host, Kathie Lee Gifford.  She spoke about how people are jealous of her accomplishments and want the things that she has, but do not want to do what she has done to attain the rewards. No one gets anywhere without work and effort. 

My mother, of blessed memory, always said that the time goes by anyway - so you might as well make something of it. 

If this resonates with you, how would you like to begin your journey now and put your moments to great use!
