Get Over Yourself! What do you Mean Get Over Yourself! I Just Can’t do It!

Many of us have faced failure at one time or another in our lives.  We usually blame others for it.  It was to hard, there was too much competition, or there were to many mean people.  Have you ever heard the saying “If it was easy everyone would be doing it.”  That’s very true, however, you can get through the tough stuff if you can get over yourself long enough to just do it.  The most difficult thing that we can do is get over our past.  We have past failures, past hurts, and past disappointments that keep us from having the life we were meant to have.

There are so many tragedy to triumph stories where people just said to themselves “get over yourself” and they went on to live very productive lives. One such story is of Helen Keller.  She was born just like everyone else but when she was very young she had a fever that left her blind and deaf.  As a child she struggled in a dark and silent world.  Her parents didn’t know what to do with her so they spoiled her and allowed her to do almost everything she wanted.  Even dinner was a horrible chore because she would just take what she wanted from everyone’s plate.

Helen’s mother was smart.  She started reading about the deaf and blind and the help that was available to them.  They hired a teacher named Anne Sullivan who was schooled in helping the blind and deaf.  Anne knew sign language and started teaching Helen right away.  At first Helen didn’t understand what was happening.  She just thought that they were playing some sort of hand game.  This went on for over a month until one day Helen was getting water and Anne signed water into her hands.  Helen got it and it opened up a world for her.

Helen Keller became a famous author before she reached her teen years.  She went on to become one of the most influential women of her time.  She was influential in the rights of the handicapped, women’s right to vote, homeless rights, and labor movements.  She visited 39 countries before her death in 1968, just a few days short of her 88th birthday.  If she can get over herself then why can’t you?  You need to just get over yourself and have the life that the Lord wants for you.
