I wanna be like Mike! Really?

Michael Jordan.

Perhaps he would be the first  name that would come to many of you if asked to name a famous baller.

Well, if you didn't know, he was not always a winner! He failed many times in his life. However he became the greatest basket ball player because he never accepted not to be the best!

OK, its only basketball. Maybe you do not even like basketball....(What??!) But this is the spirit we should have!

Revolt is a very sincere action that leads a person from zero to great.
Do you think it was easy for Michael Jordan to fail all those times? To lose all those game for his team and fans and admit it?

Many times we are not sincere with ourselves. We want everything to be OK so much, that we do not like to admit that maybe somewhere in our own lives we are failing.
Failing as a student, failing as a mother, failing in our careers or families,  even in our spiritual lives. This in denial is not good for us!

When Michael Jordan was failing, he practiced like no other, he was intelligent and knew he would only get better when he took action. He did not blame his upbringing, his past, his team for the situation he was in. He looked at himself sincerely and saw he just was not good enough (ouch).
A person can only take actions to change their life when they look around and honestly see a need to change, a need to revolt.

 Even Gideon felt like a failure,  I am sure. Until one day, in that wine press, he was like "What on earth am I doing here, hiding?!"

You see the problem has never been about failing, only accepting to fail!

Check out this video link below and look at the sincerity of Michael.

Be sincere, you need to revolt, and so do I!

Why eggs?

Hi!

Well this is my first post. I am NOT a writer, so by the second paragraph maybe you will find something wrong or grammatically incorrect . Well, sorry in advance, I will do my best.

So, my first post and the design of my blog...eggs?

Yes, eggs. Not because they are my favourite food, no! (I do like them though).

I was someone always very sensitive, OVER sensitive. So, like an egg, I would find myself always breaking at the smallest knock. Thank God I am changing!
So the eggs are a reminder to you and me, that we have to be tough in life. When problems, rebukes and challenges come, we have to deal with them in an intelligent way, always using our faith, and never our emotions.

Even writing this blog, these thoughts came, but thats why I am doing it, because I do not accept to be a person who feels inferior or small ever again!

I refuse to crack!

P.s Actually, my first blog design was of beautiful flowers and lovely pinks, but I decided to be true to myself (and the name of my blog) and put simple eggs....... this is the real me.

Welcome
