In his book Think Big, Ben Carson, famous Neurosurgeon, Author and Politician, encourages us to give our ‘Best’. He says that when we take up our role, to do whatever it is, it is important that you make a commitment to give your total self.
He encourages us to open our horizons to allow ourselves to reach new possibilities in our lives and to always remain open to what God has in store for us. Ben Carson breaks down how to ‘Think Big’ as follows:
T – Talent
All of us are gifted with a talent or in some cases talents. It is important to recognize and use them. He encourages you to find an area of interest where you can tap into your talents as this will help you rise to the top of your field.
H- Honest
It is simple; honesty is definitely the best policy.
I – Insight
Gain insight from your mistakes and those of others. Learn from them.
K – Knowledge
Knowledge is power, so never stop seeking knowledge. You can only grow from it.
B – Books
Commit to reading books, that is how you increase your knowledge.
I – In-depth Knowledge
In-depth knowledge gives you a deeper level of understanding. When we understand things at a deeper level, you can become an authority on the subject and be in a better position to give your best to others.
G – God
Always remember, God cares for every area of our lives. Do not be afraid to ask Him for help.
