Don’t you dare forget where you come from! Where you come from should make you stronger, not weaker. Where you come from should empower others, not disempower them. And who you are is where you come from. Forgetting where you come from is like forgetting yourself. But do not put where you come from on somebody else. We are a product of our own environment and the victim of our own demise. That is not an excuse as to why things are the way they are – you can take action today to change it. You can take action every day. If you don’t know where you came from then you can’t really know where you are going. 

It doesn’t make you any better than anyone else because you overcame where you come from, if anything, it makes you a role model. And as that role model, you need to encourage others to take action and get out of that hole they are in as a result of being a product of their own demise.

Where you come from has made you into the strong man or woman you are today. No one can take that from you. Where you are going because of where you have been should be greatness. That’s the only option. It should bring greatness to the people around you, the culture that empowers you, and the culture that you’ve created – your family and friends – they too shall see the greatness in you and you shall build them up for greatness too. 

But don’t you dare forget where you came from, not even for a minute, because then you get sidetracked from where you’re going and you could do a full 360 and end up right back at the beginning before you started to take action. Don’t forget where you came from, and don’t expect others to be as strong as you or as good as you because you have gone through something they didn’t – or don’t expect someone not to be. Don’t judge a book by its cover.

ACTION CHALLENGE: Don’t allow anybody that you care about go through what you went through. Make it better for them and encourage, empower, and be there for them. The world needs good friends.
