Do you feel insignificant when you consider the legacy you will leave behind? I'm not Mother Theresa, Albert Einstein, or Abraham Lincoln, therefore this isn't for me, oh no!
Rethink your thoughts. Don't consider such amazing, globally recognised icons of success for a change. Consider someone who is or was a part of your everyday life, such as a friend, relative, coworker at work, your priest, or any other someone in your immediate vicinity.
What immediately comes to mind about him or her? Has he made a positive impact on you or others? Did she produce anything unique that benefited others? Did they challenge a little injustice in the system and improve the rules? You remember, though, that tough old Murphy, your plant manager, was also a loving and fair boss who was well-liked and respected by all of your coworkers. You realise that your uncle Jim spearheaded the effort to register the historic Art Deco movie theatre on your street as a heritage property and save it from being demolished. And for three blocks down the road, every family talks about your mother's amazing apple pies.
You are there; it is the legacy! People leave a legacy when they imprint their actions on the minds and emotions of others around them. Now consider what comes to mind for others when they think of you at this moment. Good stuff? Bad things? Depressing content? Oh, you didn't even consider it, did you? Perhaps others in your vicinity don't remember you at all.
That undoubtedly makes you feel much smaller than you already did. Oh no. However, you now understand what it is to leave a legacy and how even the most modest individual can do it. Now go ahead and start putting your all into those small but incredible actions that will become part of YOUR legacy.
