The 10 seeds of Greatness 
by Denis Waitley
1) The seed of self-esteem(Appreciate the value of yourself)
"From self- love to self- worth"
  • This is a good seed because in order to succeed in life you have to learn that you're worth something and you'll also need to learn how to love yourself.  Having confidence is the way to go because without that you'll not be able to achieve anything because you'll think you are not good enough or that you cant do it but never say never and you cant give up, believe in yourselves that you can do it. Motivation can also achieve the things that you want to achieve. 
2) The seed of Creativity 
"Releasing your creative energy"
  • Creativity is characterized by the ability to perceive the world in new ways, to find hidden patterns, and to make connections. Being creative is a good thing because it expresses who you are as a person and it shows you that you are unique and can think outside of the box using your imagination. This also shows that you are original and not just a copy. Its really hard to be creative because this means you have to think outside the box and think of something unique and amazing. Creativity involves thinking and producing. 
3) The seed of Responsibility 
"Whatever we sow, we reap."
  • Responsibility is the state or fact of having a duty to deal with something. This is a good seed because it can help you with many things like for example doing the right things and having respect towards others. Sometimes people dont want to take the responsibility but that's the good thing to do. Don't use excuses and take the responsibility. 
4) The seed of Wisdom 
"A large vocabulary- which implies broad, general knowledge- characterize the more successful persons, regardless of their occupations."
  • Wisdom is the quality of having experience, knowledge, and good judgment; the quality of being wise. Wisdom leads to a person that has overcome feelings of helplessness, powerlessness, and anger. Someone that has wisdom can overcome any obstacles that goes in their life. 
5) The seed  of purpose
'' The gold mine in your goals"
  • Purpose is 
  • the reason for which something is done or created or for which something exists. Everything in life has a purpose. There is a saying that "Everything happens for a reason.''which means everything that happens to you has a purpose. Purpose also means to 
  • have as one's intention or objective.                                                                                                                                        "If you are not working with purpose then you are not working at all." -Matt Harris 
      6) The seed Of Communication
        "Reach out and touch someone 
      • Communication is key because without it you'll get nowhere. This also helps you connect with someone else. Some can even develop communication skills which means the ability to convey information to another effectively and efficiently. 
7) The seed of Faith " The power of positive believing"
  • Faith is when you have the complete trust or confidence in someone or something. Sometimes you have to have a little faith in yourself that you can actually achieve the things you want to achieve like one of your goals. Faith is confidence that you have to phase. Everyone need to have more Faith than Fear.

9) The seed for Perseverance "The will to win is everything."
  • Perseverance is the steadfastness in doing something despite difficulty or delay in achieving success. This means that you never give up even though it might be hard for you at first. Difficult doesn't stop you from anything. Perseverance also means the ability and self control that pushes you to work through challenges. Having perseverance means that when you are facing a challenge, you use your mind and your body to overcome it. You are also able to wait and work through difficulties, whether they have to do with your mind, your body, or your emotions. Having your mind set in something is also a good thing because once you start something you have to finish it.
Synonyms: persistence, tenacity, determination, staying power, indefatigably, and steadfastness, 

10) The seed of Perspective "Happiness is the spiritual experience of living every minute with love, grace, and gratitude."

  • a particular attitude toward or way of regarding something a point of view. It also means the way you see things. Everyone can picture something different because they are looking at the same thing but in a different way. Sometimes we need to see things from a different perspective. 
Reflection: I would incorporate the 10 seeds of greatness to my everyday life because with these seeds I am able to become a better person. They should me to look at different perspective of things and they also showed me that no matter how difficult the challenge is I always have to work hard to achieve them. I have also learned to never give up and to keep trying. Another thing I learned was to be confident and believe in myself that i could do it.
