***Inspiration and Motivation will Overcome Anything***
I have a heart warming success story. You all know how I
believe that we can succeed in what we do if we decide to do it
and 'take action'. Each week when I write the bulletin I have to
take action and sometimes there is no inspiration. So what do I
do? I take action, look for inspiration and think what I can
write. I get my inspiration from newspapers, journals and
conversations etc. It seems when my brain is alerted to the need
something comes to me.
My inspiration has just arrived, as it always does. This time by
reading an article in my local paper. This is a true article
about a young man called Mark. Mark has for most of his life
worked at jobs in the manual trade. Recently he suffered a bout
of ill health that prevented him from working. He was advised
that he may never work again.
He spent some time talking with local information and advice
workers and they jointly came up with a plan of action.
Reading and writing are a struggle for Mark because he is
dyslexic. So he decided to 'get to grips with using computers'.
He successfully completed courses in word processing and spread
sheets. In his spare time he did a First Aid and Health and
Safety course.
Now it gets more inspirational.
Here is a young man taking action to improve himself after being
told he may never work again. In the process of completing his
studies he was so helpful to other students that it was
suggested he might like to take a qualification in teaching
adults. Which he did and passed.
It gets better!
Mark's confidence and self esteem is now such that he is
employed by THREE organisations. One as a 'learning support
worker', one as a 'learning assistant' at a junior school, and
also as a 'community Information Technology tutor'.
I am moved by this true story because it shows yet again what
the human spirit can achieve if we let it. By his positive
action Mark has created a future for himself and he is helping
others in the process. Truly inspirational!
Tip: Those who 'get there' do so through their own achievements,
not through their dreams.
