In life I have come to see that greatness is not something that just fall from heaven, it takes strong determination. Many of us want to be great, we dream of it, we talk about it, but the truth is only few are ready to go through the sacrifice it demand.
I remember when I was younger, I used to believe that some people are just born lucky. When I see rich men with big cars or leaders that everybody respect, I will just say “na their destiny.” But as I grow, I begin to learn that behind every success story, there is always determination.
One small story from my life: back in school days, I was very weak in mathematics. I almost gave up, I even fail it two times. Many people laugh and say “math is not for you.” I wanted to agree with them, but something inside me refuse. I made up my mind that I will not leave school as a failure in maths. Every night, I carry the book, I ask questions, I practice even when my eyes are heavy. It was not easy at all, but slowly I start to understand. The day I pass maths with good mark, I felt like a champion. That taught me that determination can break even the hardest wall.
Greatness is not only about school or money, it can be in any part of life. A man that raise his family well, a woman that fight to build her small business, even a young boy that refuse to follow bad gang and choose a better path all this are greatness. And they all need determination.
Sometimes the road is ups and downs like hills and valleys, people mock at you, it seems you are not serious and you will even doubt yourself. But if you hold determination tight, step by step you will climb. Greatness is not for those who stop half way, it is for those who keep moving even when the strength is small.
So for me, I believe anybody can achieve greatness. The key is not talent alone, not money alone, but strong heart that refuse to give up. Determination is the real fuel that carry you there.
