Seems like everyone (or most of the online people) knew or heard about Susan Boyle and the stir she caused last weekend. It moved the hearts of so many people.
I admitted her performance and the scene captured from the Brit show touched my emotion a little too, I said a little because I always believe in the hidden selves of us people, I always believe that we are all different in one way or another and we all have something special inside that we need to search and realize for ourselves, something many of us as well as the judges and most of the audiences in last Saturday's audition didn't believe in.
But according to Peter Bregman, Susan didn't pass with flying color just because she has the talent, her triumph was 35 years in the making and she also had the most important thing we all need ... The heart...
Her brief story from the article told us that apart from 35 years of singing, she also had one of the most important ingredient above all. That ingredient is (are) Heart(s). She has the love for something which she has been doing it for 35 years and also she acquired the love and believe from some important people around her and these are the reason she stands tall and keeps her head high in the position she's in right now.
Now come back to take a good look at ourselves. How many of you who after getting Susan's slap on your faces, felt motivated during that weekend and now finding your skins sinking into the same old couch (where you got motivated) stop believing in yourselves and others?
Susan Boyle is a phenomenal role model for all of us, not just because of her talent or her courage or her perseverance or her supportive friends. She is a phenomenal role model for us because she is us, in all our awkward ordinariness and amazing extraordinariness - Peter Bregman
It's hard to really get up there and work on your dream especially after the long day at work and other headache stuffs, but I believe if you don't start doing something when you're motivated then you will never get anything done for the rest of your sorry lives. You can start from smaller steps but at least you've got to have a slightest progress in order to keep on being motivated. And when your fire died down, you'll stop believing you're special and you'll stop believing in others also, I noticed people who lost their motivation (or never had, to begin with) always say words of discouragement, because they know themselves won't get anywhere therefore they tend to bring other people's hopes down too.
So which type are you? The Susan Boyle type or just ordinary dreaming machine type? Your future is yours to decide.
And before I go I'll leave you with something good to watch, cheers!
