Matthew 25:24 Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strawed, 

Many of us are familiar with the story of "the parable of the sower". Three of them were given talent to traded with, unfortunately, the one with one talent buried it saying his master always try to reap where he has not sown. He had forgotten that, he gave him what he had as a gift. He invested in him but he has a negative attitude towards his master and that affected the potential of his talent. 

Greatness has an attitude, your disposition to your master will determine your attitude to his investment in you. One of the thing I can say about the first two is this: they have joy attitude and put in their best on their job. What's your attitude to your job, service, etc. I can tell what your future look like if I check how you handle opportunities given to you today. 

If you are ungrateful, you're putting in less than require on your job, gossips, etc, it's a clear indication how you'll handle opportunity. A young boy traveled with me recently, he wrote an epistle to say thank you for all your sacrifice and how you stretched for me to be better in life. I cried reading and many more did same. You see, greatness has an attitude, may you learn and be great in life. 

The Bible says: "To whom much is given, much will be required," Luke 12:48, meaning that those who are blessed with more talents, wealth, or opportunities have a greater responsibility to use them wisely and for the benefit of others.
