BE INSPIRED BY OTHER PEOPLE’S SUCCESS

34      BE INSPIRED BY OTHER PEOPLE’S SUCCESS

Mahatma Gandhi is one of the world’s most respected, diplomatic conflicts resolution expert (without arms or ammunition but dialoguing process) who gave Martin Luther King Jr. a boost to resolving conflicts without rancour, besmirch, frowns etc. Martin Luther was indeed a good learner of good things, thereby threading the success story of Mahatma Gandhi in making sure his dream of winning more party members in the labour force (the non-violent protests etc).

Not until 1965 when Martin Luther had his first and one of the world’s most successful gathering in Washington DC, where he had about 250,000 people in attendance; The “I have dream speech”. Martin Luther’s mediatorship and oratory prowess were seemingly guided by Mahatma Gandhi’s dialoguing charisma and eloquence skills etc.

More so, many people’s breakthrough today had been the close and fervent study of great people’s successes. For example; great people like Bill Williams Gates, Warren Buffet, Donald J. Trump etc, had always wanted to break the fence of setbacks in the financial circle, Bill Cosby, Whoopi Goldberg, Will Smith etc had also worked assiduously to soar above the limitations of the ordinary world; by blazing the trail in the make-believe-act in art.

Moreover, because Martin Luther King Jr. knew that wars are poor chisels to carving out our peaceful tomorrow, and we are not makers of history but we are made by history; He was propelled to make an impact. Besides, if we can’t learn from other people’s mistakes or being inspired by the successes of greater men and women; it means the hope of our better tomorrow is burning away like the stick of a cigarette.
