Not everyone can be an “Oprah” but the greatness that you see in her lives inside of you even if you haven’t realized it yet.
You may see the mega super star’s success as a random chance of luck…but what if you could tap into that specialness in your own unique way too?
As Oprah so beautifully stated on her last show…
“Everybody has a calling and our job in life is to figure out what that is and to get about the business of doing it.
Know what sparks the light in you, so that you in your own way can illuminate the world.
Wherever you are, it’s your platform, your stage, your circle of influence, that is your talk show and that is where your power lies. And every day you’re showing people exactly who you are and letting your life speak for you.
Deep down inside of you right now exists enormous power. You hold 5 golden keys that will activate the “Oprah factor” in your own life. Are you ready to put them inside the key hole and unlock your potential?
Key #1- Be Authentic: Oprah has been so relatable. She exposed her past in a way that connected us so deeply to her story that each one of us wanted her to succeed…really succeed. We watched her struggle with her weight as she attempted to publicly lose weight and fail. Time and time again we saw ourselves in her human-ness and our trust deepened. Successful people aren’t afraid to let their vulnerabilities show.
Key #2- Be Compassionate- Oprah makes a heart and soul connection with her audience. She looks directly into the eyes of each one of her guests and makes them feel like they are understood. Most of us just want an opportunity to tell our story and be heard. Successful people genuinely care about others.
Key #3- Be a Life Long Learner- Oprah has brought the “Book Club” back again and made it hip to be a student of life. She has highlighted her teachers and has credited much of her success to the things she has learned along the way. Books are her passion and all successful people are avid readers and seekers of knowledge.
Key #4- Be Generous- Oprah has established a tradition of giving back. She consistently surprised her audiences and guests with unexpected gifts from the heart. Oprah brought the concept of “being charitable” to the masses through mainstream television. Successful people focus on helping, giving and supporting others first.
Key #5- Be a Believer- Oprah has created her life by design through faith and determination. She decided when she was a young child that she was going to change her destiny. She showed millions of viewers that anything is possible. Oprah walked her talk and lived her passion. Successful people believe with every cell in their body that they are destined for something bigger than they are and they are willing to say yes to living their very best life.
Your key chain has all of the right keys…now it is up to you to put each one in the door and walk inside.
To Your Success,
