A poor student was often humiliated by his rich friends, “Hey, You will not achieve above us, because, you are from a poor family. You should be always below us.” This continuous abusing made this ignorant child to become educationally and emotionally weak. One day, the principal of the school call upon the poor boy and queried about his ill-performance. The student replied, “Respected sir! Since I am an offshoot of a poor family, my performance is poor.”Principal moved by boy’s ignorance, replied with empathetic smile, “Son, you know, it is not the colour of balloon that makes it to fly high, but the gas inside the balloon propels it higher. Colour, sects, status, religion etc, doesn’t decide men to achieve indomitable feats in life, but it’s their intrinsic drive that vitalizes them to achieve insurmountable achievements.”
The boy understood his capability and rose higher beyond his peers in education, sports, etc, and in every competitive accomplishment.
What is capable by one human is capable by all! The only difference lies in positive qualities for success, which we need to possess, to achieve like our forerunners. For achieving average success, we require average talents. But, for achieving super success, we require super talents. The super talents are acquirable through positive character and attitudes like honesty, sincerity, truthfulness, love and the like.
