Imagine yourself, years from now, attending a school reunion.

The girl everyone laughed at for being bad at math turned out to be an engineer.

The guy who couldn’t speak English well, laughed at for his mispronunciations, became an international motivational speaker.

The one known for his bad handwriting became an influencial writer.

She, who sucks at school reports, became a news anchor.

The boy who always scores lowest in science became a NASA scientist.

The one who didn’t care about world history discovered the cure for cancer.

Those who became pregnant at early ages were even more successful than those who judged.

That skinny boy is now a tough police officer.

The girl bullied for the scars on her legs became a flight stewardess.

The pimples on her face didn’t stop her dream of becoming an actress.

While some of those who wore too much confidence receiving honors and certificates, those who belittled others, called them ugly, dumb and worthless, could not even attend because they were not able graduate. You see? Intelligence, honor, and popularity will not bring you there. Diligence, discipline, and determination will. Success belongs to those who believe that the future is not determined by other people’s judgements.
