WHO IS YOUR ROLE MODEL? NEVER TOO LATE~~MAKE A CHOICE.

Roles models that inspire
and motivate life can be wonderful
for
some of us and
for others,
extremely tough.
It is actually the tough
part,our
problems and challenges, that will
define who we eventually become.
The great role models of this world can play a major
part in our lives because we can learn from them and
be inspired by their qualities, traits,
stories and challenges in our lives.
To overcome them,
we will need to dig deep and find all
the strengths that we have
determination, persistence,
resilence,
courage,
a positive mental attitude.
Dig even deeper and
you will find the
most wonderful
part of you-- the human spirit!
So who are these role models that have made a difference in people lives?
Personally,
I have millions of role models.
I am like a tree, with these millions influencing
my reasoning
as branches,
may be due to their courage, charisma or
determination to excel.
Let's meet few of them.

1.
HELEN KELLER,
who although blind and deaf from age 2,
travelled the world with her message
"THE WORLD MAY BE
FULL OF
SUFFERING BUT IT IS ALSO FULL OF
OVERCOMING".
Some of us actually believe we
have a big problem in our and when we compare to
Helens Keller's,
we realize we don't.
Or,may be we do have a problem as big as
Hellen's and then suddenly realize if she can
overcome her problem,
I can do the same.
The human spirit is
an amazing thing.

2.
LANCE AMSTRONG.
He beat cancer
and then
went on to beat
the world's greatest cyclist 7 years
consecutively.
I hope
you bought one of
his
rubber wristbands because
you would helped
to make
the world a
little bit better.
This man's postive mentalt attitude & determination to win,
to beat, to overcome is truly inspirational.

3.
MARTIN LUTHER KING JNR.
Who stood up to discrimination &
poverty and helped pave the way for
greater equal rights in America.
No one
can ever say that one person can't make a
difference in this world.
The only thing we need
is the hunger.
We need to want something badly
enough.


4.
MAHATMA GHANDI.
Who believed in non-violence
&
who was
instrumental in standing up to the British
Empire & getting India
its freedom.
A man of peace.
A man who was above differences of
colour,caste, religion or nationality.
A man who is remembered the world over.
He died with only a few
personal possessions.

5.
THOMAS EDISON.
He proved that through
persistence & determination he could achieve.
He finally invented the light bulb aftter some 10,000 failures. He didn't
see them as failures , he saw them as
steps closer to his goal. He wa$
Henry Ford's role model.

6.
ALBERT EINSTEIN.
One the greatest brains of 20th century whose theory of RELATIVITY took the scientific world by
storm.
Contrary to popular belief,he didn't go to University & in fact started off
working as a
clerk in a patient's office.
Slow to learn and not
able to speak until after age 2.
He said,"Imagination is
more important than knowledge".
What
a great message for those who have low self-esteem
because
they believe they lack intelligence.

7.
WINSTON CHURCHILL.
He helped beat Germany world war 2 and saved Britain from defeat.
Not bad for someone who failed 6th grade and
who was defeated in every election
until
age 62 when he became Prime Minister.

8.
ABRAHAM LINCOLN.
Failed in
the army,failed in business.
Lost his sweetheart when she died.
Had
a nervous breakdown.
Was defeated many,many times in politics especially
for nomination for
congress,

for vice presidency in 1856.
But became the president of the USA in 1860.

9.
F.W. WOOLWORTH.
Was not allowed to deal with
customers when he worked in a dry goods store because his boss believed
he didn't have enough sense.
Who is greater today ?

10.
NELSON MANDELA.

two decades for his fight against apartheid regime in South Africa.
He came out from prison stronger and became the 1st black president in that country.
He is currently regarded as the greatest African of all time.
