Opportunity in disguise
People go through life in misery and unfufilment. They tend to give up when it seems like they have been rejected and casted down. Some blame God for their situation or mother nature. Let the truth be told, statistic based on fact and not theory has shown that above 70% of those who became successful and fufilled in life got to that point at the peak of failure and rejection. You must learn to see problems and difficulty as a moltivating factor that can help you break barriers and chains. Thomas Edison failed severally, the founder of Whatsapp was rejected, Abraham Lincon somer saulted in failure, Michael Faraday swimed in disappointment.

What is your motivation? what moltivates you is a very strong deeply felt emotion of belief in an idea or principle. when you have a passion for something it grows into obsession. Obsession is a strong and continious interest in something, which stops you from thinking about anything else. Barnes said ''even if this takes the remainder of my life''. note this his was not just not an ordinary desire to work for Edison. he was determined and ready no matter how long it takes. when you become obsessed for a course you can stake your life until you get that thing. remember energy flows where attention goes. '' A child does not need a lightning brain to become a scientist, all he needs to do is to develop high degree of interest in the world of science'...
