Are you afraid to start because you’re alone?
Are you afraid to move because there are people who will impede you?
Are you thinking that you can’t start and move without budget?
Or you’re afraid to start because you’re not sure?
When Thomas Edison had invented the incubator, he just wants to find out if an egg will be hatch by a heat provided by another living organism. He tried to hatch an egg to a usual manner that a hen does when he applied the heat from his body by sitting close to the eggs, exactly imitating what the hen does for hatching the eggs, and his effort had become successful, he hatch the eggs after several days. Before he had done it people laugh at him pointing that he was insane, but after the short period of waiting and persistence, his effort has provided a good outcome, the invention of incubator.
Another is the story of Bill Gates in having Microsoft. No one had aim and dreamed like Bill Gates because his dream was next to impossible. His dream was, “that every home will have a computer.” A computer is not like television, a computer during those days is not yet user friendly like of what we have now. But he says this, “if every home will have a computer, I’ll be the richest man in the world.” Computer had become a necessity, he becomes the world most influential person, also became the world riches person at the age of thirty. Now, he controls Microsoft the world’s most popular operating system and office assistant.
We can be different and famous in our own way, provided that we are not afraid to start and stand.
