DECLARING GREATNESS

DECLARE YOUR GREATNESS

Americans have always had the sense they are destined to the best or first at everything they do. We think that because that is how our great nation started. America’s founders had a knack at making history because so many of their achievements as individuals and collectively as a nation had never been seen before by humankind.

James Madison said it best, “We are in a wilderness without a single footstep to guide us.” Madison and his contemporaries were the greatest group of individuals placed in one place at one time ever. They were true trailblazers in every sense.

The first Americans designed a government in which they had faith and trust in; developed a sense of omnipotence and that anything is possible; believed that the New World had unlimited resources and opportunities; and they were the first to realize they were endowed by their Creator with the Independence Instinct.

With these four Universal Thematic Principles of the American Dream, the United States of America has become the greatest nation the world has ever known. It is not even close.

Then something happened. America has bounced from one disaster to another the past 55 years or so and most doubt the revival of the American Dream is possible. The good news is America’s great successes have left tracks in the wilderness Madison spoke of in 1787.

America’s founders refused to accept the oppression of George III. Modern Americans can refuse to accept history’s verdict that America has risen and now must fall.
Declaring Greatness: Themes That Transforms Our Destiny offers a historic perspective and how-to guide for Americans to revive the American Dream in all its glory. This requires personal transformation and affirmative decisions by everyone to follow the Creator’s Grand Design so we all can Declare Greatness!
