BECAUSE AT THAT TIME RUSSIA HAD PUT STRICT RESTRICTIONS ON GIRL'S EDUCATION. SHE WAS EVEN NOT ALLOWED FOR HIGHER STUDIES AND HAD DONE IT SECRETLY.

9) STOP DOUBTING YOUR POTENTIAL. BE POSITIVE ABOUT YOUR ACTIONS AND SEE THE MIRACLES HAPPENING.
DO I NEED TO INTRODUCE HIM !
MICHAEL JORDAN, THE GREATEST BASKET PLAYER.
LET ME ENLIGHTEN YOU OF HIS CHILDHOOD STORY THAT INSPIRED HIM TO BECOME WHAT HE IS TODAY, A LEGEND.
ONCE, MICHAEL JORDAN'S FATHER CAME TO HIM WITH A CASUAL T-SHIRT AND ASKED HIM TO GUESS THE PRICE. HE SAID 1 DOLLAR. THEN HIS FATHER TOLD HIM TO SELL THE T-SHIRT AT 2$. ZORDAN TOOK IT, CLEANED IT, IRONED IT AND THEN WENT TO THE RAILWAY STATION. AFTER FEW HOURS HE SOLD IT AT 2$. HE WENT HAPPILY TO HIS FATHER AND GAVE HIM THE MONEY.
FEW DAYS AFTER, HIS FATHER CAME WITH THE SAME T-SHIRT AND TOLD HIM TO SELL IT AT 20$. JORDAN SAID IT'S IMPOSSIBLE BUT HIS FATHER SIMPLY SAID HIM TO GIVE IT A TRY. JORDAN THOUGHT FOR A WHILE AND WENT TO THE CITY. HE BOUGHT A MICKEY MOUSE STICKER, PASTE IT ON THE T-SHIRT AND STOOD IN FRONT OF A BIG SCHOOL TO SELL IT. A KID INSISTED HIS FATHER TO BUY IT. NOT ONLY HE BOUGHT IT BUT ALSO GIVE JORDAN A TIP OF 5$.
FEW DAYS AFTER AGAIN HIS FATHER CAME WITH THE SAME T-SHIRT BUT THIS TIME TOLD HIM TO SELL IT AT 200$. JORDEN DIDN'T UTTERED A WORD, JUST TOOK IT SILENTLY. SEVERAL DAYS HAD PASSED BUT HE WAS UNABLE TO GET IT DONE. ONE DAY, A FAMOUS ACTRESS HAD COME TO HER CITY. SUDDENLY AN IDEA STRUCK HIM AND HE WENT TO THE CITY. HE GOT AN AUTOGRAPH OF THAT ACTRESS ON THE T-SHIRT. THEN WENT TO THE MARKET TO SELL IT. SO MUCH OF PUBLIC GATHERED AROUND HIM TO BUY THAT HE WAS FORCED TO AUCTION IT.
CAN YOU GUESS HOW MUCH THE PRICE HAD GONE UP !
JORDAN SOLD IT AT 2000$. IT'S UNBELIEVABLE THAT HE SOLD A SIMPLE CASUAL T-SHIRT , MERE 5$ FOR 2000$. JORDAN WENT CRAZY AFTER THIS AND NARRATED THE WHOLE INCIDENT TO HIS FATHER. HIS FATHER HUGGED HIS BOY AND SAID "SON, YOU CAN DO ANYTHING IN YOUR LIFE" .
IT WAS ONE OF THE GREATEST MOMENTS OF JORDAN'S LIFE. IT MOTIVATES US TO CONQUER OUR NEGATIVE THOUGHTS. BECAUSE ONE CAN'T EXPECT POSITIVE RESULTS FROM NEGATIVE MINDSET.
10) TRAGEDY CAN NEVER STOP A WINNER FROM FIGHTING FOR HIS DREAMS. IT ONLY DEMORALIZES LOSERS.
THIS MAN IS KAROLY TAKACS, THE 1ST EVER PERSON TO WIN GOLD MEDAL TWICE IN OLYMPICS CONSECUTIVELY. BUT THIS LEGEND IS BIGGER THAN THAT.
KAROLY TAKACS WAS BORN IN HUNGARY. BY 1936 HE HAD BECOME A WORLD CLASS SHOOTER. HIS ONLY DREAM WAS TO WIN GOLD IN OLYMPIC. BUT HE WAS DENIED A PLACE IN THE HUNGARIAN SHOOTING TEAM FOR 1936 SUMMER OLYMPICS ON THE GROUND THAT HE WAS A SERGEANT. FORTUNATELY THIS LAW WAS LIFTED AFTER 1936 OLYMPIC.
KAROLY WAS VERY HAPPY THAT FINALLY HE CAN FULFILL HIS DREAMS AND STARTED PREPARING FOR 1940 OLYMPICS. BUT A TRAGEDY OCCURRED TO HIM IN 1938. DURING MILITARY TRAINING HIS RIGHT HAND, HIS DOMINANT HAND, GOT SEVERELY INJURED BECAUSE OF A FAULTY GRENADE. EVERYONE THOUGHT GOD WAS VERY CRUEL TO HIM AS THIS MISHAPPENING ENDED KAROLY'S SHOOTING CAREER.
KAROLY SURPRISED EVERYBODY WHEN HE CAME TO HUNGARY NATIONAL SHOOTING CHAMPIONSHIP 1939. EVERYONE GAVE HIM HEARTFELT MESSAGES OF CONDOLENCE BUT GOT SHOCKED WHEN HE SAID 'I AM NOT HERE TO WATCH, I AM HERE TO COMPETE' . EVEN MORE TO THEIR ASTONISHMENT HE WON THAT CHAMPIONSHIP.
IT WAS NOT JUST A VICTORY RATHER A STATEMENT THAT HE WON'T STOP UNTIL HE WINS OLYMPICS. BUT TO HIS GREAT DISAPPOINTMENT 1940 OLYMPICS GOT CANCELLED BECAUSE OF WORLD WAR 2. HE STILL DIDN'T LOSE HOPE AND PREPARED FOR 1944 OLYMPICS. BUT THE BAD LUCK CONTINUED AND IT WAS CANCELLED AGAIN.
THE MAN WHO HAS BEEN PREPARING FOR AGES TO FULFILL HIS DREAM TO WIN OLYMPIC WAS DENIED A SINGLE CHANCE BY THE DESTINY. FINALLY, THE DAY CAME WHEN OLYMPIC HAPPENED IN 1948 AFTER 12 YEARS. BY THIS TIME KAROLY HAD BECOME 38, SURPASSING RETIREMENT AGE OF SHOOTING.
BUT HE WAS KAROLY. THE MAN WHO HAS BEEN WAITING THROUGHOUT HIS LIFE FOR ONE CHANCE TO FULFILL HIS DREAM. SO, HE CHOSE TO PARTICIPATE. OTHERS WERE MUCH YOUNGER TO HIM AND WERE PARTICIPATING WITH THEIR BEST HAND WHEREAS KAROLY WAS COMPETING WITH HIS ONLY HAND. THE RESULT WAS CLEAR. THE MAN WITH THE ONLY HAND WON, BREAKING ALL PREVIOUS RECORDS.
BUT HE DIDN'T STOP THERE. AGAIN HE COMPETED IN 1952 OLYMPICS AT THE AGE OF 42 AND MADE HISTORY THIS TIME BY WINNING IT TWICE CONSECUTIVELY. HE WAS THE 1ST PERSON TO ACHIEVE THIS FEAT. HE EVEN WON BRONZE IN 1958 ISSF WORLD SHOOTING CHAMPIONSHIP THAT TO AT THE AGE OF 48. HE IS ALSO AMONG ONE OF THE FIVE PERSONS IN THE WORLD TO WIN OLYMPIC WITH A PHYSICAL DISABILITY.

HE WAS VERY FRUSTRATED AND DEPRESSED. HE CALLED HIS FRIEND AND SAID " THIS CITY HAS TROUBLED ME A LOT. ONE DAY I WILL RULE IT . "

LET ME ENLIGHTEN YOU OF HIS CHILDHOOD STORY THAT INSPIRED HIM TO BECOME WHAT HE IS TODAY, A LEGEND.
ONCE, MICHAEL JORDAN'S FATHER CAME TO HIM WITH A CASUAL T-SHIRT AND ASKED HIM TO GUESS THE PRICE. HE SAID 1 DOLLAR. THEN HIS FATHER TOLD HIM TO SELL THE T-SHIRT AT 2$. ZORDAN TOOK IT, CLEANED IT, IRONED IT AND THEN WENT TO THE RAILWAY STATION. AFTER FEW HOURS HE SOLD IT AT 2$. HE WENT HAPPILY TO HIS FATHER AND GAVE HIM THE MONEY.
FEW DAYS AFTER, HIS FATHER CAME WITH THE SAME T-SHIRT AND TOLD HIM TO SELL IT AT 20$. JORDAN SAID IT'S IMPOSSIBLE BUT HIS FATHER SIMPLY SAID HIM TO GIVE IT A TRY. JORDAN THOUGHT FOR A WHILE AND WENT TO THE CITY. HE BOUGHT A MICKEY MOUSE STICKER, PASTE IT ON THE T-SHIRT AND STOOD IN FRONT OF A BIG SCHOOL TO SELL IT. A KID INSISTED HIS FATHER TO BUY IT. NOT ONLY HE BOUGHT IT BUT ALSO GIVE JORDAN A TIP OF 5$.
FEW DAYS AFTER AGAIN HIS FATHER CAME WITH THE SAME T-SHIRT BUT THIS TIME TOLD HIM TO SELL IT AT 200$. JORDEN DIDN'T UTTERED A WORD, JUST TOOK IT SILENTLY. SEVERAL DAYS HAD PASSED BUT HE WAS UNABLE TO GET IT DONE. ONE DAY, A FAMOUS ACTRESS HAD COME TO HER CITY. SUDDENLY AN IDEA STRUCK HIM AND HE WENT TO THE CITY. HE GOT AN AUTOGRAPH OF THAT ACTRESS ON THE T-SHIRT. THEN WENT TO THE MARKET TO SELL IT. SO MUCH OF PUBLIC GATHERED AROUND HIM TO BUY THAT HE WAS FORCED TO AUCTION IT.
CAN YOU GUESS HOW MUCH THE PRICE HAD GONE UP !
JORDAN SOLD IT AT 2000$. IT'S UNBELIEVABLE THAT HE SOLD A SIMPLE CASUAL T-SHIRT , MERE 5$ FOR 2000$. JORDAN WENT CRAZY AFTER THIS AND NARRATED THE WHOLE INCIDENT TO HIS FATHER. HIS FATHER HUGGED HIS BOY AND SAID "SON, YOU CAN DO ANYTHING IN YOUR LIFE" .
IT WAS ONE OF THE GREATEST MOMENTS OF JORDAN'S LIFE. IT MOTIVATES US TO CONQUER OUR NEGATIVE THOUGHTS. BECAUSE ONE CAN'T EXPECT POSITIVE RESULTS FROM NEGATIVE MINDSET.
10) TRAGEDY CAN NEVER STOP A WINNER FROM FIGHTING FOR HIS DREAMS. IT ONLY DEMORALIZES LOSERS.
THIS MAN IS KAROLY TAKACS, THE 1ST EVER PERSON TO WIN GOLD MEDAL TWICE IN OLYMPICS CONSECUTIVELY. BUT THIS LEGEND IS BIGGER THAN THAT.
KAROLY TAKACS WAS BORN IN HUNGARY. BY 1936 HE HAD BECOME A WORLD CLASS SHOOTER. HIS ONLY DREAM WAS TO WIN GOLD IN OLYMPIC. BUT HE WAS DENIED A PLACE IN THE HUNGARIAN SHOOTING TEAM FOR 1936 SUMMER OLYMPICS ON THE GROUND THAT HE WAS A SERGEANT. FORTUNATELY THIS LAW WAS LIFTED AFTER 1936 OLYMPIC.
KAROLY WAS VERY HAPPY THAT FINALLY HE CAN FULFILL HIS DREAMS AND STARTED PREPARING FOR 1940 OLYMPICS. BUT A TRAGEDY OCCURRED TO HIM IN 1938. DURING MILITARY TRAINING HIS RIGHT HAND, HIS DOMINANT HAND, GOT SEVERELY INJURED BECAUSE OF A FAULTY GRENADE. EVERYONE THOUGHT GOD WAS VERY CRUEL TO HIM AS THIS MISHAPPENING ENDED KAROLY'S SHOOTING CAREER.
KAROLY SURPRISED EVERYBODY WHEN HE CAME TO HUNGARY NATIONAL SHOOTING CHAMPIONSHIP 1939. EVERYONE GAVE HIM HEARTFELT MESSAGES OF CONDOLENCE BUT GOT SHOCKED WHEN HE SAID 'I AM NOT HERE TO WATCH, I AM HERE TO COMPETE' . EVEN MORE TO THEIR ASTONISHMENT HE WON THAT CHAMPIONSHIP.
IT WAS NOT JUST A VICTORY RATHER A STATEMENT THAT HE WON'T STOP UNTIL HE WINS OLYMPICS. BUT TO HIS GREAT DISAPPOINTMENT 1940 OLYMPICS GOT CANCELLED BECAUSE OF WORLD WAR 2. HE STILL DIDN'T LOSE HOPE AND PREPARED FOR 1944 OLYMPICS. BUT THE BAD LUCK CONTINUED AND IT WAS CANCELLED AGAIN.
THE MAN WHO HAS BEEN PREPARING FOR AGES TO FULFILL HIS DREAM TO WIN OLYMPIC WAS DENIED A SINGLE CHANCE BY THE DESTINY. FINALLY, THE DAY CAME WHEN OLYMPIC HAPPENED IN 1948 AFTER 12 YEARS. BY THIS TIME KAROLY HAD BECOME 38, SURPASSING RETIREMENT AGE OF SHOOTING.
BUT HE WAS KAROLY. THE MAN WHO HAS BEEN WAITING THROUGHOUT HIS LIFE FOR ONE CHANCE TO FULFILL HIS DREAM. SO, HE CHOSE TO PARTICIPATE. OTHERS WERE MUCH YOUNGER TO HIM AND WERE PARTICIPATING WITH THEIR BEST HAND WHEREAS KAROLY WAS COMPETING WITH HIS ONLY HAND. THE RESULT WAS CLEAR. THE MAN WITH THE ONLY HAND WON, BREAKING ALL PREVIOUS RECORDS.
BUT HE DIDN'T STOP THERE. AGAIN HE COMPETED IN 1952 OLYMPICS AT THE AGE OF 42 AND MADE HISTORY THIS TIME BY WINNING IT TWICE CONSECUTIVELY. HE WAS THE 1ST PERSON TO ACHIEVE THIS FEAT. HE EVEN WON BRONZE IN 1958 ISSF WORLD SHOOTING CHAMPIONSHIP THAT TO AT THE AGE OF 48. HE IS ALSO AMONG ONE OF THE FIVE PERSONS IN THE WORLD TO WIN OLYMPIC WITH A PHYSICAL DISABILITY.
