Robert Smalls was born into slavery but would go on to become a hero of the Civil War, a successful entrepreneur, and a U.S. congressman.
His journey is one you have to read to believe.

Remember... big opportunities come from doing the small things with a big dose of passion, love, purpose and excellence. Be faithful with what you have and where you are today. Don't chase success. Decide to get better every day, do great work and success will find you.
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.” Proverbs 3:5-6
In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans. https://t.co/c6PWMLhr0E
If you wait until you feel totally ready to do something you’ll either never do it or never make progress.
The best time to do something is now.
Don’t be afraid to push yourself beyond your limits and out of your comfort zone.
When we are willing to let God shape our identity, He will take whatever we have to offer and multiply it in ways and for a purpose that we cannot even begin to imagine. 💯
It takes time to get to the top, and that’s good - because by the time you get there, you’ll have learned what you need to know in order to stay there.
