Your Major Gifts will make room for you. Your Minor Gifts will establish you.-Tudor Bizmark
There is so much inside of you that needs to be used. We all have major gifts. Some of us sing, dance, write, excel at sports. Others use their intellect to challenge ideology, act, draw, design, etc. Those can be considered major gifts. Your major gift will make room for you. It will open doors for you.
However, we also have minor gifts. Michael Jordan’s major gift is putting a ball into a hoop. His minor gifts are selling underwear and real estate. Michael Jordan’s major gift made room for him. His minor gifts are what have established him. Just think if Michael Jordan hadn’t allowed his minor gifts to establish him. He would have been the greatest ball player to ever touch the court – and just a fond memory from our past.
Use your major gifts to your advantage. Allow what God has given you to open doors for you. But also be mindful that you have so many different talents inside of you. Search deep and use them as well.

I totally agree here…and that is what I do with my salsa dancing…its what I do best and I always am at the clubs in NYC practicing my moves on the dancefloor. That is the talent that I possess and God gave it to me to share with the public. So whatever talents God has given to you – USE THEM. Because it is wrong not to use them. He is giving you these gifts to share with the world, not for you to hide them. Make yourself SHINE.
