As a child of God, choose to excel in all that you do; all it takes is a decision on your part. The reason is that in God's mind you're already number one of all His creation; you're first class all the way. The consciousness of this truth will propel you to always be the best in everything you do.
As a student, make up your mind to be number one in your academics. If you're an athlete, be determined to be the best on the field. If you want to be a doctor, prepare for it by studying, and be determined to be one of the best around. God isn't against medicine.
He wants medical science to find cures for the so-called incurable diseases and help people live more enjoyable lives you can be the one to discover some of these cures! It'll take time, diligence and hard work, because such achievements aren't gotten at leisure.
To bring out your very best, you'll have to draw from God's investment in you–the Holy Spirit (Ephesians 1:14). He's always there to help you; take advantage of His presence in your life and He’ll help you stand out.
