Big dreams start small
I had 2 days ago a little incident. I was in a
classroom for higher educated children, after school and I walked through the
empty classroom and looked at the empty and dirty classroom. It was very hard
to find a place with no garbage, paper on the floor, gums, empty bottles,
pencils. It looked very messy and dirty. What surprised and shocked me at the
same time, was a painting on the wall. It was a Picture about the dreams of a
young 13 year old student and dreams always get my attention, so I looked on that picture and
I discovered the student wanted to do something big, like save our Planet, go to
Hollywood, change the world and bring world peace and as I locked in the
classroom I tried to find the place from these guys with these great dreams.
I thought all day long, how can a person who wants
to become a planet saver go home after the classroom where he spends 8 hours a
day studying and training for his future-dreams, study in such a mess up. How
will he clean our Planet, if he can’t save his little tiny classroom from other classmates? How can
a future world peace Politician close his eyes when the people around him
destroy the Order in the class and mess up the whole place?
This Painting in the messed up classroom reminded me on a quote from the Bible: If you are faithful in little things, you will be faithful in large ones. But if you are dishonest in little things, you won't be honest with greater responsibilities.
Sometimes it’s hard to see yourself and you need a
shock to think about, so I’m glad I saw it. Now i can took it on my life.
For me personally it’s a revelation, how can
someone who can’t be trusted with 500€ be worthy to spend 1 Million right? would you give him the money?
How can
someone who can’t clean up after himself go out and clean our Planet? Would you follow? How can
someone who betrays, cheats, lies and curses on his loved ones, bring world
peace to other nations? Would you entrust him and send him on such a important meeting to stop a war?
How can someone who hides from his family responsibilities
lead others by example into a bright future? Would you trust and follow him?
So i took the Lesson, i take responsibility not only for my life, but for everything what surrounds me.
So let us start together now and take responsibility for small things that bring us every day step closer to our wished big result and to much higher task to fullfill. Don’t
forget, it starts small, before it grows big and bigger!
God bless us all
