Determination and Willpower Open Up a Path :
Your determination to overcome whatever fate has thrown in your way does not mean you need to undertake something huge. You just need to open a new path, starting with something close at hand. Ask yourself what you are capable of doing and what you can achieve in your current situation. If you find you are unable to use the gifts that you have developed up to now, see if you have other abilities.
What are the qualities in you, your siblings, friends or teachers admired when you were young? Perhaps you have some hidden ability that even you have forgotten you possess. It is possible to open up a path to the future by finding an ability that you have not yet developed to the fullest.
I remember watching a documentary on television about a man without any arms who used to paint with his feet. He held a paintbrush between his toes, and created paintings that were of professional quality. I was very impressed. He could use his feet to do just about anything, which demonstrates that if we lose our hands, we are capable of developing our feet to the extent that they can be a substitute. This is a real-lifeexample of someone who made a great effort.
Many people, if they were to lose the use of their would give up making any further effort to help themselves and ask others to look after them for the rest of their lives. However, the man on television was different. He did not want to become dependent on others; he was able to use what was left to him to find his own way forward with determination. He liked painting so he decided to use his feet to do this and began to practice. In the beginning he could not achieve much but gradually the more he tried, the better the results, until finally he was able to produce pictures.
A person without any arms could become a painter he was able to use his toes to hold the brushes and squeeze out the paints-and he produced real art. If this is possible, then surely 7 people who do not have any physical disabilities can achieve anything they put their minds to.
Today, educational institutions have so many th different courses offering a variety of qualifications a and skills to help people achieve their goals. People w like to make excuses and say, "I can't do anything in m my current circumstances," or "I don't have any talent," but if they really wanted to achieve something an it would be quite possible for them to get the qualifications they needed to proceed toward their or objective. The only reason they have not achieved something is that they have not made sufficient effort or they lack the willpower to reach their goals.
Surprisingly, the efforts that people with disabilities make and the process they go through to achieve their goals seem all the more wonderful when you realize what they have succeeded in overcoming. So when you hear about people with disabilities who get ahead despite adverse circumstances, what should you do? You who are overflowing with potential .
