We are on Day 1977 of our Trek, and it’s time to explore another nugget of wisdom, which includes an inspirational quote and some wise words from Gramps for today’s trek. Wisdom is the final frontier in gaining true knowledge. So we are on a daily trek to create a legacy of wisdom, seek out discernment and insights, and boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before.Hello, my friend; this is Gramps. Thanks for coming along on today’s trek as we increase Wisdom and Create a Living Legacy. https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Proverbs%2016%3A16andversion=NLT (Proverbs 16:16) How much better to get wisdom than gold, and sound judgment than silver! If you apply the words you hear today, over time, it will help you become more healthy, wealthy, and wise as you continue your daily trek of life. So let’s jump right in with today’s nugget:Today’s quote is from Brian Tracy, and it is: An average person with average talents and ambition and average education, can outstrip the most brilliant genius in our society, if that person has clearly focused goals.Being Average Is Fine I like this quote from Brian Tracy because I can relate to the concept. Although I would like to think that I am above average in most areas of life, I realize that I am a pretty average Joe. I am short of stature, not overly athletic, and at best average in most academic subjects. However, one area in which I am above average is self-confidence and focus. What I lack in talent and education, I make up with hard work, perseverance, and tenacity. When I set a goal, I am focused on the steps needed to complete that goal. I will not give up and consistently pursue the end game. So if you find yourself just being an average person in many areas of life, that is fine. You do not have to be a brilliant genius. You must be willing to have clearly focused goals and not give up. Even if you make little incremental progress each day, you will achieve your goals if you do not give up. https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Proverbs%2021%3A5andversion=NLT (Proverbs 21:5)Good planning and hard work lead to prosperity, but hasty shortcuts lead to poverty.As you ponder this nugget of wisdom for yourself, please encourage your friends and family to join us and come along tomorrow for another day of ‘Wisdom-Trek, Creating a Legacy.’ If you want to listen to any of our 1976 treks or read the Wisdom Journal, they are available at Wisdom-Trek.com.
