Genius

You were born a genius and slowly life convinced you that you were something a lot less. As far as I know, God does not make mistakes. Your body might not be perfect but your Subconscious Mind is. Have you ever wondered why a two-year-old can learn any language you teach it in just a few short months? Have you ever seen a six-year-old on a skateboard doing impossible maneuvers?
Right now, you have the creative genius to be a millionaire. Hard to believe, isn’t it? Ask yourself these questions: Do I have enough intelligence and ability to invent the “Pet Rock?” Somebody did and made millions. How about the Frisbee, do you know how that was invented? Some workers in a pie factory were bored during their lunch hour so they started throwing and catching empty pie plates in the parking lot. A motorist passing by said to himself, “That looks like fun.” He patented the idea and he too made millions.
Do you know how the hula-hoop craze got started? A hardware storeowner made the first ones out of plastic, and put them in his store window with a price tag of a dollar. Nobody bought any so he lowered the price to fifty cents. Still, no one bought any. Finally, he lowered it to twenty-five cents. There were still no takers. One day, a five-year-old boy was staring at it in the window. The little boy asked, “ How does it work?” The man in an effort to get rid of the kid said, “Look, if I give you one will you go away?”
The kid said, “Yeah.” The man took the hoop out of the window, walked outside, and handed it to the boy. The boy was so excited he couldn’t wait to try it. He put it around his waist and started gyrating. The hoop was flying around his little waist. Within minutes, a crowd of kids gathered around and they all wanted one. The storeowner quickly changed the twenty-five cents on the sign to two dollars and fifty cents. He couldn’t produce them fast enough, for every kid in town had to have one. You see, sometimes Geniuses need a good kick in the rear to get started.
