While other people missed what Michelangelo could see, he saw the angel and all they only see it as slab of marble.

Our life is a lot like Michelangelo and the slab of marble.

You can do what you see yourself doing. You have to look deep within yourself and chisel away at your marble until you release the potential and the angel within you.

That angel is your personal power to live the life that you where meant to live and to release your power to achieve great things. you have to believe in yourself and see it in your potential.

Don’t walk past the marble of your life without seeing the angel waiting to be released.

You can do what you see and believe. See it, believe it and then just do it.
