From Caterpillars to Butterflies: Personal Growth | Inspiration | Achievement

There’s a scene in one of my favorite movies I Like it Like That where one of the characters says, “It’s gotta hit and when it does it’s going to hit big.” He was referring to the lottery. Since Chino, one of the main characters had been playing the same number every week for years they were for sure it would hit. In due time, eventually, his number would come up.

How many times do we wait for something to happen for us believing in due time it’s going to hit? And when it does it’s going to be big. You have a greater chance at being killed by a vending machine than winning the lottery. Don’t play the lottery with your life. Put yourself in the winning seat. Choose your own number. Choose your own dreams and goals. Set goals. Write them down. And move toward them. The odds are in your favor when you do these simple things.

I sometimes forget how blessed I am to live in the United States . I’ve traveled many places from Bangkok to Trinidad and Tobago to now Colombia. I’m reminded that we are wealthy compared to a good part of the world.

I exchanged $40 to Colombian pesos just to purchase souvenirs. The translator traveling with us said the 2,700 or so pesos I had was the equivalent of one week’s living expenses. $40!!!

We had to take toilet paper with us when we left the hotel (I don’t think they were too happy about that) because many places had none. In fact, students are required to bring toilet paper to school similar to how students in the US bring a box of tissue paper.

I helped give eye exams to students and adults. Some kids couldn’t see the first two lines of the eye chart! Can you imagine being in class unable to see the board? Some people came to the medical facility simply because they were hungry. They didn’t even want to see a doctor! That’s why mission trips like the one I went on are so important to me.

Just a reminder that you are richer than you know!

The need to belong is a strong human need. Maslow’s hierarchy says once we meet the need for food, water, and safety the next most important need is the need for love and belonging. Yet at the top of that hierarchy is the need for self actualization.

If we find belonging in a place that doesn’t honor who we are it often prevents us from reaching our fullest potential.

Hear more about the balance between belonging and self fulfillment in this episode.
