Too Much Noise ~ Listen Your Voice

One day, as a small child, Thomas Edison came home from school and gave a paper to his mother. He said to her “Mom, my teacher gave this paper to me and told me only you are to read it. What does it say?”

Her eyes welled with tears as she read the letter out loud to her child…

“Your son is a genius. This school is too small for him and doesn’t have good enough teachers to train him. Please teach him yourself.”

Many years after Edison’s mother had died, he became one of the greatest inventors of the century.

One day he was going through a closet and he found the folded letter that his old teacher wrote his Mother that day. He opened it…

The message written on the letter was “Your son is mentally deficient. We cannot let him attend our school anymore. He is expelled.”

Edison became emotional reading it and then wrote in his diary:

“Thomas A. Edison was a mentally deficient child whose mother turned him into the genius of the Century.”

Remember, a positive word of encouragement can help change anyone’s destiny.

When you start something different which you feel, see, sense, knew and desire to create exception in your and others life, there is always a NOISE generated. It is fact that someone start to do something which is out of regular lifestyle or comfort zone, it makes many uncomfortable.

Noise source can be from your new competitors in field, your family, your colleagues, your friend circle and many others. Many will feel you have taken something out of track decision, which is not good. There is nothing wrong in their opinion, it might be love or care behind their words.
