Morning Vibes With Dr. Jerry - the First
Hello and welcome to
#MorningVibesWithDrJerryTheFirst-Episode 40
Title: Are You An Action Taker, Or Are You A Spectator?
I am told that there are
two types of people in this world - those who make things happen and those who
stand by the side and applaud the first - they just watch things happen. The
first set of people are referred to as Action Takers while the second set of
people are called Spectators. As is always the case, spectators far outnumber
the action takers. That is why in a game of football between two teams, where
there may be 22 players max on the field of play, the venue could accommodate
thousands of spectators. We may never all be action takers, there must be
spectators, that is how life is designed but why would you be the spectator?
What is stopping you from stepping in the ring to square it out with life and
be the victor? Why would you always want to stand on the sideline, with hands
akinbo and waiting for "godot" That is not why you were sent on this
journey. When you were delivered into the World, you had an injunction or call
it a marching order, "go ye and conquer and dominate" and both
conquering and dominating the world require courage to be an action taker.
Spectators can never conquer and dominate the world to make an impact therein;
but action takers sure do. Action takers have what it takes to make the world
move on, they have the ideas that rock the world, they put their lives on the
line to create a tidal wave and impact the world and of course there will
always be spectators applauding them. Nobody ever gets nominated for an award
for being the best spectator? but people actually get nominated for awards for
being the best in their respective fields of endeavour. Why a new opportunity
is presented to you, how do you react to it? from unsavoury past experience or
from paying it forward? An action taker would definitely key into even if he
knows little or nothing about it and then go from there to make a huge success
at it, but the spectator would raise an eye brow about it, ask for time to
study it, and in the process conveniently forget about it, but then when he
hears of the superlative success of the action taker on the same opportunity he
has scoffed, he would be the one clapping to the heavens for that success and
wishing that he had been the one. it is in your hands to make or mar your life
and this stems from the little things you do every day. Today, give an honest answer
to this question "Are you an action taker or are you a Spectator" and
if you sincerely know that you have been watching life go by, then it's time to
do a 180 degree turn and make over a new you. Better an action taker than a
spectator be.
