Literary Ceativity - A Race Car? No, Thank You.

Those race cars are incredibly sleek, they are low to the ground and extremely aerodynamic. They got these huge engines, they can go 200 miles an hour on a straightaway, they can take a curve at 100 miles an hour, and they are quick, fast and precise.


An SUV sits up high and has plenty of room and trunk area but if you try to take a turn in it at 100 miles an hour, you will be hearing the angels say 'welcome to heaven'!

Why is that? Each car is designed for a specific purpose. The SUV is not going to have a chance on the racing tracks and the race car will not do a lot of good on the city streets. They both have incredible strengths. The key is to make sure you keep them in the right race.


Are you the race car, with the talents and the looks? Then, be the best that you can be. Run your race. If you are not, don’t feel bad about it. There is nothing wrong with saying those are not your strengths, I am never going to be that fast, I am never going to be a size 5, my personality is never going to be outgoing and dynamic, but I am ok with that.

It’s easy to go thru life competing with everyone around us. The very freeing thing is when we realize we are not competing with anyone.

You are made different on purpose. Stay focused on your own race.
