You too can make your dream happen!
History is full of tales of experts who were convinced that the ideas, plans and projects of others could never be achieved . however , accomplishment came. To those who said, “I can make it happen”
The Italian sculptor Agostino d’Antonio worked diligently on a large piece fo marble. Unable to produce his desired master piece, he lamented. I can do nothgn with it”. Other sculptors also worked this difficult piece of marble, but without success. Michelangelo discovered the stone and visualised the possibilities in it. His “I can make it happen” attitude resulted in one of the world masterpieces. David.
The experts
of Spain concluded that Columbus” plans to discover a new and shorter route to
the west Indies was virtually impossible . queen Isabella and King Ferdinand
ignored the report of the experts.”I can make it happen, Columbus persisted And
he did, everyone knew the world was flat. But not Columbus. Columbus with his
small band of followers. Soiled to “impossible” new lands and thriving
resources.
Even the great Thomas Alva Edison discouraged his friend, Henry Ford, from pursuing his idea of motorcar. Convinced of the worthlessness of the idea . Edison invited Ford to come and work for him. For remained committed and tirelessly pursued his dream. Although his first attempt resulted in a vehicle with out reverse gear. Henry Ford knew he could make it happen . And, of course , he did.
Let’s into forget our friends Orville and Wilbur Wright. Journalists, friends, armed forces specialists, and even their father laughed at the idea of an airplane. What a silly and insane way to spend money . leave flying to the birds.” They jeered. “Sorry” , the Wright brothers responded. We have a dream and we can make it happened” As a result, a place called Kitty hawk. North Carolina, became the setting for the launching of their “ridiculous “ idea finally , as you read these accounts under the magnificent lighting of your environment , consider the plight of Benjamin Franklin. He was admonished to stop the foolish experimenting with lighting . what an absurdity and waste of time ! think goodness Franklin knew and he make it happen. You too can make your dream happen!
Attain perfection with determination
