Today I want to talk about seven amazing life lessons from
Oprah, I recently wrote an article titled “7 Must Read Lessons from
Oprah,” so needless to say, there’s a lot to learn from Oprah.
Oprah Winfrey is an American television host, producer, and
philanthropist, most known for her self-titled, multi-award winning talk
show, which has become the highest-rated program of its kind in
history.
She has been ranked the richest African American of the 20th century,
the greatest black philanthropist in American history, and was once the
world’s only black billionaire.
Some even consider her to be the most influential woman in the world.
Winfrey was born into poverty in rural Mississippi to a teenage
single mother and later raised in an inner-city Milwaukee neighborhood.
She went though considerable hardship during her childhood, prior to
becoming the person she is today.
7 Amazing Life Lessons from Oprah:
1. See What You Want to Be
“When I look into the future, it’s so bright it burns my eyes.”
What do you see when you look into your future, because what you see
is what you’re going to get. Do you see your future so bright it burns
your eyes? If you do, then that’s what you’re going to get. If you see
your future as mundane, then that’s exactly what you’ll get as well.
What you see is what you get; I suggest you begin to see what you want
to be.
2. The Power of Passion
“Passion is energy. Feel the power that comes from focusing on what excites you.”
Passion comes from doing what you love. When you’re passionate you
can work all night long. Passion is power, it the fuel that you need to
succeed. Discover your passion and dedicate your life to fulfilling
it, no matter how long it takes.
3. Focus on the Good
“Be thankful for what you have; you’ll end up having more. If you
concentrate on what you don’t have, you will never, ever have enough.”
What you focus on expands. If you focus on the good, you will get
more of it. If you focus on lack and poverty, you will get more of that
as well. Learn to recognize the good in your life and be grateful for
it everyday. Soon your focus will change and so will your life.
4. You Must Change
“We can’t become what we need to be by remaining what we are.”
In order to have more, you must become more. Nothing changes in your
life until you grow. What are you doing daily to grow, to change? If
you’re not changing, you shouldn’t be expecting your life to change. To
the degree that you change is to the degree that your life will
change. If you keep on doing, what you’ve always been doing, you’re
going to keep getting the results you’ve always been getting, to expect
otherwise is insane.
5. We All Fall Down
“Do the one thing you think you cannot do. Fail at it. Try again.
Do better the second time. The only people who never tumble are those
who never mount the high wire. This is your moment. Own it.”
Imagine if a small child quit trying to learn how to walk after
falling down twenty times. Imagine if he or she said, I guess this
walking thing isn’t for me. In life you will fail, you will make
mistakes, you may even get discouraged, but you must try again. The
only people not failing are the people who are not stretching themselves
beyond their current comfort zone. Dare to fail until you succeed.
6. Maximize Your Potential
“The whole point of being alive is to evolve into the complete person you were intended to be.”
Are you maximizing your potential? Are you utilizing 100 percent of
your skills, talents and knowledge, or are you settling. The purpose of
life is to grow, to become all that you were intended to be.
Your purpose is to grow big enough so that you can help others, so the question is, are you maximizing your potential?
7. Think Bigger
“What God intended for you goes far beyond anything you can imagine.”
So many people live beneath their capabilities because they are
riddled with guilt by the thought of living a lavish life. Your creator
intended for you to have the best, and to become your very best. The
best was made for you! If not you, then who?
