create NOBILITY and be NOBLE.

 

The phenomenal man never drops from space. He often isn’t born noble. Those born into nobility also often do not make it to the phenomenal life. The phenomenal man creates nobility and builds himself around this attribute. You may be familiar with the phrase “great men are not born but made”. Truly, phenomenal men aren’t born but made. Check through your history books all the phenomenal men you’ve come across, one attribute is familiar around them. They come from little backgrounds uncelebrated and unheard.

The quest for nobility is one that is revered. It’s an illustrious quest for those who think they must achieve it. It’s a quest that permeates through every right thinking man who wants to get away from the normal life. The beauty about this life is how it makes you look grand, larger than life and absolutely spectacular.

Nobility is a trait that was once considered as privy to kings and queens and their royal households. It was never for the common man until the development of a new dynamic leadership style in “democracy” that has taken power away from the click of traditional nobility to the hands of the people. The beauty with this trait is everyone can develop it.

The mishap though that seems a familiar norm is what seems to be the abuse of these attribute. Many persons do not understand what nobility really is. They are thus often misled towards untoward traits in their quest for nobility. They make this quest a “do or die” affair and finally hit the away stretch lost and never to be found.

If you understand the nobility trait, it could help you build and create a purposeful target, envisioning what you desire and then it placing you at the centre to attain this trait. So here we go

What’s nobility?

This is thought provoking a question with often a myriad of answers from varying schools of thought. Crazy cults, religious organizations, academics, etc. have being famous for their seeming claim to having the ability to evoke this attribute in their members. Some also have being infamous for this claims. While your search for nobility is on, your quest for the phenomenal life must be the propellant.

Defining the word nobility is such a huge task but it’s easier when we observe the attributes expected of such lifestyle.

  •  Nobility stirs dignity. The dignity of the phenomenal man is always the centre of attraction and attention. He carries himself with such carriage and respect often seeming bigger even when he knows he is not. He has a huge self esteem which lifts him higher amongst his peers and creates an aura of respect around him
  • Nobility stirs superiority. Superiority is the order of nobility. Those who pursue for nobility whatever path they tend to take do these because of the aura of superiority they want to have. The quest for superiority is not uncommon. This quest resides silently in every one but is often instigated by ones discovery that he can take a bolder step and stand head high above others.
  • Nobility stirs aristocracy. The superior life that nobility stirs often leads to a class order. The superior man thinks he has to deal with superior people like he is so he gets about searching for people with similar attributes. A class order is created and defined. This is what is observed in many social as well as political organizational outfits. This class system now stirs a battle or fight for attainment. The phenomenal man finds himself though in the higher cadre of superiority class.
  • Nobility stirs goodness. The phenomenal man whose quest for nobility is intact often yearns towards goodness. He stretches his hands to uplift and lift others. Their quest is always towards being godlike stringing forth goodly benefits towards those in the lower cadre of life. It is believed that you are nobler when more people can attribute their success and their achievements to you. The beauty of the life of nobility is the increased sense of goodness that it offers.

Our push towards achieving the phenomenal life won’t be complete without that huge sense of nobility and all the attributes that comes along. The challenge though is that living this lifestyle seems a huge challenge especially as it seems an attribute for the wealthy class. However whatever class you find yourself, you can live a life of nobility.

Understand first that the life of nobility isn’t a quality within the privy of those that have wealth or riches only. Even the poor man on the streets can attain this lifestyle once he acknowledges that this attribute is one of the heart or mind rather than of possession. The beauty about this lifestyle is that it’s all about self-discovery. Once you discover your huge value, you can create your nobility form there.

How do you create the life of nobility around you? This is quite simple.

  1. Acknowledge you have nobility in your birth. You don’t have to be a prince to have it. It’s in you already right from your birth. There is no difference between a baby born in the house of a king and that born in the house of a peasant. If they are both given equal treatment, they would both respond positively to them. Nobility doesn’t come by virtue of place of birth. It is an inherent trait in everyone.
  2. Develop knowledge on traits that characterize nobility. The traits that characterize nobility are learned. One can develop such traits and apply such knowledge to live out their life in the most suitable path.
  3. Practically live out the noble life whose traits you have learned. The noble life is to be practically lived. Talk, dress and act in the noblest way. Your noble status has to be practically seen by others.

God has put in every one the noble character. You have it just as the son of the king. You are the son of a king, and that king is God. Don’t accept delimiting attributes that do not describe who you are, what you stand for and where you must be. You have the vivid capacity of a noble man. Stir that capacity. Don’t accept less than what you are worth.
