I have been so moved and motivated by her words in this column that I am going to run the steps, a few each day or week.
We need a miracle. How often have you heard people say that? How often have you said it?
In times of trouble or despair, we want someone else to take action, someone stronger, smarter, more poweful than ourselves.
The truth is we all have just enough strength, smarts and power to make a difference, to be the miracle for someone.
We pass by miracle workers every day. They're often disguised as ordinary people -- teachers, barbers, nurses, secretaries, cashiers, cab drivers and sheet-metal workers like her dad.
People in all walks of life who don't just go to work to bring home a paycheck. People who go to work to make a difference in the lives of others. People who remind us that no one is too small to make a big difference.
We're all her to matter for others, to be the miracle someone else needs. How do you do that? All you have to do is make a beginning:
1. Start where you are.
2. Get busy on the possible.
3. You can make a big difference, no matter how little you make.
4. Magnify the good.
5. Do your best and forget the rest. It could simply be too soon to tell.
6. We all do the same things. It's how we do them that makes the difference.
7. Interruptions are divine assignments.
8. Adjust your own oxygen mask before helping others, or you'll be of no use to anyone --including.
9. Instead of treating people the way you want to be treated, treat people the way THEY want to be treated.
and
10. If you want to see a miracle, be the miracle.
More later!
