TALENT MAXIMIZATION
To every single talent you have, is equal to millions of opportunities. Talent
is so much appreciated all over the world, and most of the high-profiled
personalities in the world that is being celebrated are actually men that stand
to display their natural abilities. Talent is simply defined as a natural
ability to do something well. From the definition, I’ll pick-point ‘natural’
because it means that it is something that exists as a result of the way that
the supreme being had made it to be. Maximization means to increase something
as much as possible. When I hear people say maximizing your potential, it gives
less or no meaning to the hearer, if not elaborated intuitively.
“Maximization is all about increasing the efficiency of the potential that makes you unique" -Emmakudos
ILLUSTRATION:
The christian's spiritual book
narrated a parable about the talent, being shared between three servants by
their master before he traveled to a very far country. It is true that each of
them were not apportioned an equal number of talents but afterwards there’s a
lesson behind it. The first servant was offered 5 talents, the second was also
offered 2 talents and the third received 1 talent. But the question here is; is
their any partiality according to the way that their master shared the talent?
ANSWER:
There was no partiality because when a responsibility is assigned to someone, he
or she has an equal grace to work it out and secondly, it is more risky for the
man that acquired 5 talents to work for another one out of the five.
“To whom much is given,much is expected of him”- to that effect,the man that was offered five talents gathered the momentum to work harder,deny himself and remain focused to work things out and also to the servant with 2 talents. What can we say about the man with 1 talent? He was assigned with a smaller responsibilities but he was afraid and not capable enough to work things out. The time of working out your talent might be the time of your adversary because many challenges will emerge.
“He that fainteth in the days
of adversary, his faith is small”
No matter
how negligible your talent is, you got the ability from God to make it bigger
and something, for God created something out of nothing but here you have
something to work with, but you com plain that you have only little to work with.
It is very painful.
THE SECRET
OF THE FIRST AND THE SECOND SERVANT
The
major secret behind the increase of their talent was that, they worked
efficiently with their natural abilities to gain more. They know that keeping
their talent idle and buried like that of the third servant breeds no result
and makes everything stagnant.
-They were
optimistic about everything
-They
engaged their natural abilities
-They
invested wisely.
-Their
present position (SERVANT) then, did not limit their actions to make their life
valuable.
-They
managed their time well.
-They were
risk takers.
-They saw
opportunities in every of their obstacles and mountains
-They saw
themselves the way they were intended to be seen, despite their present
predi
cament as a servant.
THE FOOLISHNESS
OF THE THIRD SERVANT.
He was
myopic enough, not to recognize that the investment of the talent issued to
him, can be maximized. And for that reason, he went and buried his talent.
-Afraid of
taking risk
-He was
myopic
-He was
pessimistic about the whole issue.
-He saw
difficulties in the midst of opportunities.
CONSEQUENCES:
The story continued that their master came
back to access them. The first and the second servant was fortunate enough to
have being granted access to the produce of their extra-talent they worked for.
Now, sad news to the third servant by their master. He was ordered to be cast
to the hell of fire, where there was gnashing of teeth.
However, this implies that when you fail to
manage your talent, you’ll suffer the repercussion later in life, that there
will not be enough resources to sustain yourself.
“Hell fire is not only meant for sinners but also for people that fail to maximize their talents” -EVANS PROMISE.
