Born to succeed

By Yasmin Ilahi 2015-04-11
All of us want to do something extraordinary in life. We wish to achieve something amazing and want our efforts to be acclaimed by the world. We work hard and put in all our abilities, both physical and mental, to attain the goals we have set for ourselves; to prove our mettle to the world.

But there are people not as lucky as us! They also have their dreams, goals and aspirations, but severe physical or mental disability or limitation, make it difficult for them to pursue their dreams.

Friends, I would like to share with you details about some gifted people who didn’t let their disability of one kind dispirit them! They realised that they were not ‘disable’, but ‘differently able’ — they had some other gift or skill that they optimised to achieve much more than anyone’s expectations. With the help of sheer determination, indomitable spirit and hard work, they achieved worldwide fame. By refusing to surrender to their limitations, these people contributed positively to the world, making it a better place to live in and proving that they were born to succeed!
