If You Think Like Everyone Else Then...

You are more than likely not on the path of greatness if you find yourself thinking like the crowd most of the time. Greatness is a lonely path that few choose to follow and is reserved only for those with realized purpose on their lives. Everyone has access to this path, yet our own choices, decisions, and those things that we allow to influence us cause many people to choose the common road, mediocrity. People who are remembered after they die are those who were willing to take risks and make sacrifices that the majority were unwilling to. No one, absolutely no one is remembered for mediocrity. The graveyard is littered with vessels that never lived out their purpose due to fear from standing out from the crowd. Those in the land of the living end up as the walking dead because they allow fear to kill them slowly. The soul who does not fulfill its purpose is dead. To walk the path of greatness requires that you be strong minded, tenacious, courageous,and be able to walk alone. The spoils of walking in greatness are much greater that the spoils of walking in mediocrity, but it comes with a sacrifice, which is walking with a small few or alone.
