It’s a miracle that we exist. And while we’re here, let’s live and leave a legacy. For the miracles to follow
Scientists have calculated using different math and probabilistic models that the chances for a human being to be born is 1 in 400 trillion, taking into consideration genetics, ancestral events and environmental & historical events. ONE IN FOUR HUNDRED TRILLION. Now you do the math, what are the odds that you are here today?
While this number is debatable and it’s more a philosophical topic rather than pure science, it is still a miracle that you, as individual, were born years ago. If this miracle though happened, wouldn’t be a pity not to take advantage of it? And do the most with it, living it at its full potential, building stories and leaving something behind for the miracles to follow?
When I was young(er) life was all about me, developing myself, having more, proving myself to people around me. The older I’ve got, wisdom seems to have reached me from behind. Today I am more settled, not being always on the run, not looking for validation anymore, but more importantly more thankful to who I am as an individual, what I have and people around me.
If I would highlight something that changed over years is the way I approach people growth. In the last 10+ years I’ve been building teams and organizations, from start-ups to large scale businesses. While growing people around me. And it’s so rewarding to see people progressing, developing, no matter if they stick to your team or just fly to new horizons. I’ve always believed that no matter how good of a leader you are, some people have grown so much around you that they need their own thing and need to move on in another team, another business but still keeping a strong personal connection.
With age and experience I’ve learned to give back more while keeping both eyes open to new perspectives, knowledge and lessons I could learn from human interactions.
The chance you are here today is 1 in 400 trillion. ONE IN FOUR HUNDRED TRILLION. What are the odds that you are reading this today? What will you do different tomorrow?
