Convert Stumbling block into stepping stone.

As a ace swimmer Michael Phelps chose to challenge himself and proved that no hurdle is too high for a determined and focused individual to cross over. His steadfast commitment for excellence in his chosen sports career made him a hero and even today sportsperson continue to draw inspiration from his achievements.

This is what is expected from a Rotarian. A Rotarian is expected to be an inspiration for others to do good in this world. Life’s most persistent and urgent question is, “What are you doing for others?” Every sportsperson, every musician, every artist and everyone who has excelled in their vocation is setting an example for others to follow, if not the whole world, at least within their community. Service to humanity is the highest form of activity a person can choose and they are called Rotarians when they join the movement. You are expected to inspire, lead and make your community a better place for others.

When faced with a difficult challenge in front of you, it is natural for you to think that you are not strong enough toovercome. However, you must remember that  a problem remains as a hurdle only till the moment you decide to face it head on using all the resources available to you . In other words, a problem serves as an impetus to discover your innate but hidden capabilities and bring them to the fore.

It is time to replace your sense of confusion or fear in the face of challenges in life with strong self-belief, fear with indomitable courage, and negativity with positivity. “Impossible is just a word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they have been given than to explore the power they have to change it,” says Muhammad Ali.

Your destiny is not to go through life passively without leaving your footprints on the sands of time, but to be impactful and irreplaceable with your uniqueness and insurmountable spirit.Every Rotarian is expected to honour the legacy of the change makers who led the organisation in the earlier years by taking steps to make positive collective impact on the world. Remember, you can opt out of the act of serving humanity, but you cannot opt out of the outcome that will result when there is distrust, disharmony and strife in the world. Bringing people together has far-reaching effects. You, as a Rotarian, can do this by turning every hurdle into a stepping stone for progress.
