Dream, determination and persistence

Leave a reply

I just saw a documentary on National Geographic about the Hubble Space Telescope and then saw in Facebook that today is Hubble’s 25th anniversary through a post of one of my friends.

And the TV documentary made clear to me that achieving a working space telescope was a journey with tremendous determination and persistence, as everything that could go wrong actually also often did go wrong.

But they did it! So another story that with determination and persistence one can achieve anything. And it all starts with a thought, a dream.

And a matter of Master Mind of course, as many people were involved.

Holiday

Well, I’m on holiday, travelling yesterday and only my smart phone is working so not easy to write a daily post, but at least I can let you know that I am still there and trying to get something written. Or not truing, but actually doing.

Your dream

GattacaI was (accidentally) watching the movie Gattaca, a movie I have seen quite some times. And it is a movie I like very much, I don’t exactly know why.

And before today I never really saw what I saw today, that the movie is all about determination, the determination to achieve something. And another thing that struck me today was that there were more people knowing what was really going on than I thought. And all those people supported Vincent, even help him when the odds are against him.

So yes, somehow the movie is about the principles of success, and I think many of the principles can be recognized in it.

And yes, certainly watch this movie (again), and learn from it, see how  the principles of success are applied, are being used.

And yes, it is all about determination, definite purpose, the determination of one man, Vincent Freeman.
